"Galvanic, do you happen to know was the token currency for exchange within Rodgers retailers and suppliers of Rodgers? Do you know its trade value at time of minting and date?
Here's one I chanced upon recently"

I don't if it was or not, and the token you posted looks nothing like the one I have. I'll try and get a picture of it later today
When I posted "Here's one I chanced upon recently" I meant only here's a cutlers token. Love to see yours ::tu::

Nice Ike and Dimitri.
Has that 4 bdl found a permanent home Mike? Nice assortment of JRs.

I have 3 and traded another for a farmers jack. I've done that a few times. Joseph Rodgers are the originators of the wharncliffe pattern, the frame for my collection of farmers jacks.I’ve seen a catalog cut of a JR farmers jack and one knife that was owned by Tony Bose.

The Paxton knife.
