FOR the complete story, FULL DETAILS and BIG CLEAR PICTURES, Please SEE THE DESCRIPTION SAN CARLOS, APACHE RESERVATION, Arizona GOOD FOR 50¢ Indian "TRADING POST" Token SAN CARLOS, APACHE RESERVATION, Arizona GOOD FOR 50¢ Indian "TRADING POST" Token Description This is an old "Good For 50¢ In Trade" token from the "San Carlos Trading Enterprise" of San Carlos, a town on, and the seat of government of, the ...Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona. Please see the map below. I found references to this Indian "Trading Post" from as early as 1959 until as late as 1983.
In February of 1873, 1, 200 Apaches were marched from Fort Grant to establish the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation at the confluence of the San Carlos and Gila Rivers. The chosen location, on a gravel terrace above the combined rivers, was barren, inhospitable and would not support the population. A small detachment of soldiers remained at the new reservation and a system to supply weekly rations to the population was established. That system would last until after 1900.
