Looks like this company can be moved back to at least 1944 from the "HAA SOLDALITY 1944" inscription. But why the Y S C Co. mark? (York Silver C? Company or York C? Silver Company)

Consolidated Silver Company of America c.1940-?
Re: York Marks & Dates
Okay, mark is Chicago Silver Company: https://www.925-1000.com/americansilver_C2.html
Presumably "YORK" is then just a pattern name in this line?

Re: York Marks & Dates
Anyone find any specific link between The Petterson Studio and Gustafson's works...the similarity of marks for two companies in the same city is odd and so many of the people working the craft in Chicago seem to be tied together.? Then again, maybe they all just liked the look of street-railway tokens.

Not a lot to go on with the engraving, but possibly from the (Girls') Sodality of the long defunct Holy Angels Academy at Jonesboro Arkansas (opened 1930) as an adjunct of a convent there.
