Comment

These tokens were issued by Richard Dolloff. More information on this token and others issued by Dolloff can be found in The Nonagon: Bulletin of the New Hampshire Numismatic Association (vol. XIII, no. 2, winter, 1975-1976, p. 267), accessible on the Newman Numismatic Portal: https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/515494?page=3

According to The Nonagon, this token was issued as a replacement for misprinted tokens that contained the erroneous date of 1967. The error token was of the same design but printed in red ink.
