snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 08/06/2007 8:47 pm I doubt that it is a coin, maybe a token? Report this Post to the Staff

t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 08/06/2007 9:33 pm It does remind me of Disney's Aladdin movie. Maybe it is a piece from a board game with a promotional tie-in to the movie. Report this Post to the Staff
Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/06/2007 9:33 pm Its an arcade token. Don't know the franchise but someone else posted one of these. I tried to do a search but realistically that post could be anywhere. After some lengthy research on the web my conclusion (although with no concrete evidence such as a picture stating this is where it is from) is that it is a Bally's Alladin's Castle arcade token. Not the casino but the arcade manufacturer. I remember when I was a teenager in San Antonio they had one of these arcades. It was huge and we would go hang out there on the weekends mostly. Getting into trouble and such, lol. Now arcades are pretty much passed up by teens these days with the likes of Playstations and X-Boxes.

Good memory, Irish. Here's one of the old threads. We weren't too definite about what they were back then, either. I remember, when that old thread was posted, wondering what the swirly thing on the non-castle side was supposed to be. Now I see it! It's a head wearing a turban! Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
JRC Valued Member United States 68 Posts	Posted 08/07/2007 08:41 am That is a game token for Aladdin's Castle. It was local kids attraction before Chuck-E-Cheese. They served pizza , had arcade games and catered to kids birthday parties. Report this Post to the Staff
arthrene Pillar of the Community United States 1713 Posts	Posted 08/07/2007 12:17 pm Thanks guys, I came across it at the good old waterpark accounting job and have been wondering forever. Most coins have at least some writing on them and like in the other post, I was wondering if it was a far east coin. Report this Post to the Staff
