I thought that it might be time for a list of Books on tokens, medals and other exonumia.
Here are the ones I have picked up so far along with a 3 ring binder of the newsletter jackpot (13 volumes) from the Amusement token collectors association. Great for the lists and descriptions of tokens every issue.

Some are out of print and available on the secondary used book market. I will caution members here to don't jump on the first one you see. As some of the sellers on ebay, Amazon and the used books want really silly prices.
I have posted these sites before you can find them if you look and don't fall for the BS by the sellers.
The US token 1700- 1900 book I have seen asked almost $300.00 USD I paid under $30.00 plus shipping same with the other books

I almost purchased the first one shown on ebay a few months ago, but I don't really have a need for it, Looked kind of neat. I used to run a Bally's arcade in 1980-81 in SW Denver called the Goldmine. We used sloted tokens on all our video arcade machines.

If you don't know it is mostly a listing of the tokens, after Atwood pattern. Will have to look up the name and see what it says. The second one is another list but of 9,000 tokens known in Michigan!
Look around as the first one is still available new shrink wrapped. Probably was Rich on ebay, he also does Amazon and sells from his own web site. Good guy to deal with.
