The image depicts a metallic token, which is clover-shaped and embossed with the text "HELM CIGAR STORE" along with the address "424 EDMOND ST." in capital letters around the perimeter. A small star is centered above the word "STORE," while an ornately designed double arrow is positioned below it. The metallic surface of the token is slightly worn, suggesting age or frequent handling, contributing to its nostalgic or collectible appeal.
