Hello Community, I wanted to ask if anyone knows about these coins/tokens, I can't seem to find any info on them. Basic info like, where was it minted? How many minted that year? Was it for free give aways? Was it for members only? Is it used for instore credit if there is a store/sales? there just isn't anything about these any where, not even on this site or other coin sites. So any info would be helpful. Thank you

Little info about size and weight:

Copper
34mm diameter
3mm thickness
16.3g weight

Brass?/Bronze?
33mm diameter
1.5mm thickness
12.7g weight

@chiz, I see that you have cross posted these on the MPC Fest Facebook page, which is a great idea. To me, these look like souvenir challenge tokens so getting minting info is going to be tough. I doubt that they are actual MPCs though.

If you can find Fred Schwann or Joe Boling, either one will be able to answer your questions.
