I have another quarter planchet in my collection, so I pulled it out to compare. The dimension matches and it has the slight chamfered edge as well. As for the weight, I don't have a scale.

The transit token is also collectible. Consider placing that into a 2x2 for safekeeping as well.

Great group of coins!

From the pics it looks like a planchet to me.

Weight would be helpful, but looks genuine to me. Nice little haul. You should ask them to save all their rejects for you in the future.

I'm surprised that's all they had.

I think the Japan 100 Yen coin is silver.

Went by City Hall today and stopped by and the Parking manager had some reject coins again for me. It was pretty full of Canadian quarters and other world coins. The only good ones were a 1936 UK six pence (silver) and a 1953 UK six pence.

Surely a quarter blank has all the correct physical specifications for a quarter, except perhaps diameter. Why would it be rejected by a parking meter?

The fact that it failed indicates to me that it's probably not a quarter blank.

I'm guessing it had to be the diameter plus manually removing it because it was mistaken for a electrical box punch out which are similar in size to a quarter. Both cups had several of those in them.
