c. Early 1900s Manlys Meat Market - Monongah, WV - Coal Scrip Token


Hailing from Monongah West Virginia, meat market tokens are unique to the area as no other coal company worked the same agreement with the local butchers of their respective areas. This is one of 4 known butchers to reach such an agreement first with the Fairmont Coal Company which later became part of the Consolidated Coal Company.

The obverse features a dear and the reverse reads GOOD FOR / 5C / AT W.H. MANLYS / MEAT / MARKET / MONONGAH, W. VA.
