Around the eagle, there is text which appears to include "BOSTON" and "CLOTHES WAREHOUSE," suggesting it might be a token from a historical commercial establishment. The surrounding text is partially worn, indicative of the coin’s age and frequent handling over time. The overall tone of the coin is a tarnished gold, showing signs of oxidation that give it a rustic appearance.
