Comments

The Compagnie des chemins de fer de Paris à Lyon et à la Méditerranée (abbreviated to Compagnie PLM) was founded in 1857 by the merger of smaller pre-existing companies, and was nationalized when the SNCF was created in 1938.

This token may have been used at the La Mouche depot, built in 1865 in Lyon's 7th arrondissement (source: S. Dufour, 2008, "Les ateliers PLM d'Oullins, la coopérative Renaissance", Bulletin de l'ACJM, n° 38, p. 13-21).
