GMS5 Pillar of the Community Canada 1532 Posts	Posted 08/14/2017 10:53 am These coins are from a game called shuffleboard, homemade edition, which is called shuffpenny. My grandfather had a full set of these coins for his game that he made. Smooth on one side so it will glide down the game table with a slight bit of sawdust on the table top.
