Title

Giddens Coins

Description

These coins were used to pay employees who worked at the W.W. "Bill" Giddens’ sawmill in Coverdale. The employees could use the coins at the company-owned store. There was also an agreement with the Ashburn merchants that they would accept them as payment and Mr. Giddens would come around monthly to collect the coins and pay the merchants.
