The pouch is similar to the one used for the 1967 Centennial token that was given to everyone as a kid in public school. Has anyone ever seen these before and where could I find out more information about them? Thx. Report this Post to the Staff

I don't know if it comes from the same source, but I know that in 1963 a laundry soap company had this type of promotion. The company offered a 12-cent discount on the purchase of their soap box. And the discount was in the bottom of their box, 12 coins of 1 cent 1963 in a pliofilm (2 rows of 6 coins each). I have one of these somewhere. On the other hand, I forgot the name of the company. Maybe it says something to some people... I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day. Edited by ainsivalavie 05/04/2019 11:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
