The image is of a metallic token with a distinct clover-like shape, showing signs of wear and age with a slightly tarnished surface. It features embossed text that reads "APEX BUFFALO" around the upper edge, indicating a connection to a place or establishment named Apex in Buffalo. Centrally placed is the number "412," which could signify an address or identification number. Below, the text "EDMOND ST." suggests a connection to a specific street, possibly pinpointing a location for business or residence. At the bottom, the name "JIM QUEEN" is inscribed, potentially identifying an individual associated with the token, either as an issuer or owner. The overall presentation gives an impression of historical significance, suggesting the token may have been used for trade, identification, or commerce in a specific locale and time period.
