Transit Token Collectors/Government Tokens - Post Yours

This came in today, one I bought from a partial roll for sale.

Cool token JESP, thats the first highway token I've seen :) Very nice! Welcome to the CCF as well!

Thanks EconBrony. I think it would have been interesting if there was one for the NJ Turnpike too, but no.

Buddy, I think though the token has 1952 on it, I think that style was used into the 1980s, though I can't say for sure. Still, I'm happen to get it either way.

As far as I know this type of token was used until 2003. Though the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority as nominally separate, it is basically the division of the NYC MTA responsible for bridges and tunnels. Its merger with the MTA in the 1960s was notable, because it coincided with the fall of its chairman, Robert Moses.

Yet another awesome token JESP! Very cool design, I actually like the design on both sides quite a bit

Took a few new pics today :)

Interesting to see how many had similar background patterns. While they're all different, a lot have a sort of basket-weave design that goes to the rim.

Thank you EconBrony for creating this thread for transit token collectors.

I started collecting them as a diversion from my U.S. and World coin collection, and I've been hooked ever since. I have some from nearly every city and state as well as some from Canada and Europe. I have many interesting and unique examples to show here.

Just to start it off here's one with an Indian Head design, there's only a few I've seen that have this design.

That one really is different.

Nice pics, Harry123.

Thanks for sharing.
