krazykoinkollector New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 03/02/2014 12:40 am I discovered this coin in a batch of quarters I received. I'm not sure if it's real currency; I think it might be some kind of arcade token? Unsure. It is the size of an American quarter, but a little lighter. On the top and bottom of the coin it says New Japan, and on the right and left there are 3 stars. In the middle, there is the Star of David, and then in that is NJ. Same on both sides. If anyone has any information, I'd be glad to know! Edited by krazykoinkollector 03/02/2014 09:31 am Report this Post to the Staff

denco7 Pillar of the Community United States 2543 Posts	Posted 03/02/2014 11:57 am I am thinking a pachinko token. It is a token for a Japanese pachinko machine. Used as an arcade/gambling pastime in Japan. Not positive though. Report this Post to the Staff
ASLAN TVorlon Pillar of the Community United States 1234 Posts	Posted 03/02/2014 12:09 pm Pachinko token makes sense, I have not watched much Japanime but I do remember from the one or two movies I suffered through they are rather fond of the idea of New Tokyo... as a future dystopian re-emergence after the old city is destroyed at some time in the future.
