Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 4:45 pm The obvious question is why was it felt necessary to go to the trouble and expense of issuing such at all when ordinary one cent coins used for making change for everything else seemingly should've sufficed for the stated purpose as well?

mackwork Pillar of the Community United States 652 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 5:19 pm This may explain sales tax tokens - they were once used for sales taxes less than a cent. That 1 on yours may be for 1 mill - 1/10th of a cent. http://www.taxtoken.org/faq.htm Report this Post to the Staff
