Circa 1880's-90's tokens from the J. R. Maxwell Plantation, located along a bend in the Black Warrior River near Tuscaloosa. These tokens were collected by Alabama State geologist Walter P. Jones Sr. Jones was an inveterate collector of all things historical, especially rocks. His coin and small token collection was purchased by Al Adams decades ago, long before the historic cotton plantation sold in 2010 for $8.5m. Jones dutifully inscribed in pencil on each token envelope what he had and where it came from. This group is split into three lots, the 5 cent tokens, the 10 cent tokens and the 25 cent tokens. nearly all are uncirculated, still in the c1950's-60's glassine envelopes tucked into brown coin envelopes. Only two of these are listed in the Tokencatalog. We assume that the attribution here is correct by virtue of the collector.
