Any info about this would be great help. Thank you. Always enjoy finding tokens but this one I haven't been able to find any info on. Any help greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/23/2022 11:08 pm The Chambres of Commerce de France used yellow aluminum bronze "BON POUR" (good for) 50 Centimes, 1 Franc and 2 Franc coins in the years 1920-27. It seems that lots of small business within their local regions around the World formed organizations like a 'Chamber of Commerce', and issued token coinages. The tokens facilitated business and acted as advertising pieces Report this Post to the Staff

IdahoOrv New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 05/24/2022 10:42 pm I always find it interesting how trade tokens from Eastern or widwestern US find there way to Idaho. Since they are worthless to another merchant. Thanks for your help. For all I knew it was from Idaho. With that name fitting and not an everyday name. Makes since to me. Report this Post to the Staff
