I am from the West Coast and we are always finding tokens and medallions in which no one seems to be able to identify. Also does anyone know of a sight that has knowledge of modern tokens and medallion identification. I can find numerous sights for older tokens but nothing for modern day things. Also I am going to try an attack a picture of this one medallion and hopefully someone out there has seem it before. medallion 001.jpg
 
To me it looks like the front of a small airplane with the X being propellers. Just a guess. I looked on the web and see that there used to be an airport in Bellfower but the area is now covered with houses.
 
The first thing I thought of was a person that helps with the game of Keno in a casino, Keno Assistant.

Keno Runner/Writers provide assistance to Keno players and encourage guests to participate in the game.
In addition, Runner/Writers ensure that players receive the highest level of service, as well as being an instrumental part in the smooth operation of the game.

Well then I have no idea what it is.

I sent an e-mail to Kent State University with a link to this page.

I recieved an e-mail back telling me that my e-mail had been distributed throughout the universtiy hoping that someone would know something.

It may not be From Kent State University but I figured it was worth a try.

If and when I get a response, I'll post it here.

My guess is that the medallion belonged to an assistant coach for the track & field team at Kent school somewhere. Maybe a university or maybe a HS.
 
Thank you coolwhips!!!!
Dumb me did noy figure you could just send emails to Kent. I am sure glad someone out there is watching my back and teaching me the ropes.
Thank you again!!!! Your great!!!
