Harry213 Pillar of the Community United States 1104 Posts	Posted 07/19/2015 10:42 pm Thanks for the comments guys. Here's another one with the Indian head design from Oneonta, New York. Oneonta issued several varieties of these Indian Head tokens of which this one is my favorite, and probably the most collectible. I find the "Thrifty McToken" slogan rather amusing.

Harry213 Pillar of the Community United States 1104 Posts	Posted 07/19/2015 11:09 pm These are also from Oneonta 1908, though they appear the same they were actually produced in different sizes (dime, nickel, quarter). Also these are made of brass not bronze as the dime sized "Thrifty Mctoken". Report this Post to the Staff

Harry213 Pillar of the Community United States 1104 Posts	Posted 07/26/2015 5:51 pm *andyg* Nice work on the British transport catalogue. Its good knowing there others out there, like yourself, that are contributing their time and research to the hobby.. It would be great to hear about your progress on this forum. I've only found about 3 different UK Transport Tokens, here are a few of the images for your viewing pleasure. (stay tuned, more to follow) Report this Post to the Staff
Harry213 Pillar of the Community United States 1104 Posts	Posted 07/26/2015 6:08 pm Here are two more UK National Transport Tokens. A 5 and a 10, I will assume the numerical or monetary units 3,5,10 are not Pounds? I've only included one image of each token, since the front and back are identical on these. Also they are each made of Aluminum, and as with other tokens that are similar the major difference is in their diameter. Report this Post to the Staff
