AlexFG New Member Greece 19 Posts	Posted 10/31/2012 07:38 am I have these tokens but I'm not sure what they are. Apart from the lower right, which seems to be some kind of US army token (and still not much info about it), Google doesn't bring up much. The five on the above are all Greek and on the back side it sais "antallasetai me eidos" (exchangeable in kind) My guess is that most of them are from the 50s/60s (perhaps extending to 40s). I would like to know more about them though - if anyone knows what these are. Report this Post to the Staff

AlexFG New Member Greece 19 Posts	Posted 10/31/2012 11:55 am Thanks guys Regarding the lower 5, which seem to be of non-local origin, they are all the same (front/back) so no need for double pic. The upper 5 have what I said earlier. Their size, just to have some idea, is about the diameter of a 1 euro coin. The token with the mercedes sign, I am thinking maybe it has to do with mercedes factory workers of the 50s/60s... many Greeks went as immigrants to Germany and worked in German factories back then - so one could end up in my grandfathers collection, "troubling" me 60 years later Report this Post to the Staff
