There are no parking tokens in my town that I know of, however I'd like to learn more about them. I found this one in a cheap token lot I purchased. It weighs 3.4 grams. Is it still being used or are they all pretty much out of circulation? Anything "Parking Token" related goes in this forum!

Can't speak for everywhere, but I don't think they use them in my town anymore. Like you, I thought they didn't exist here, but one of the first ones I found was indeed from the town (small one in Western PA) I live in.

I haven't seen them in years. Bus token too. With the computerized parking meters coming out now, you can use you credit or debit cards. I think they'd make a cool collection, better get them quickly they'll soon disappear.
Money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with.

The American Vecturist Association (AVA) includes parking tokens.

There is an Atwood-Coffee Guide, published by the AVA, that provides references for parking tokens.
