The is one of several I found in my Grandfather's things. If there is an interest, I will post the others.

I was in the vending business 20 or so years age. I have "somewhere" a bunch of tokens. The company I ordered tokens from sent me a sample package of the different kinds of tokens they minted. looked like extras and overruns from previous jobs. Again if there is an interest, I'll dig them out and post pics

I have a pretty nice collection of transportation, restroom and carwash tokens as well. I'd love to see what you have!

I always found the cutouts in Tran Tokens quite interesting....there is quite a story behind the person who invented the idea... not the original idea but the idea of producing them in mass

Scoutjim,

I have a few from Hawaii that I believe were made in the 50's (also a cutout design). Do you need one for your collection? Let me know.

I have one of these too. I bought it from a company in London many years ago. They were called Baldwins, I think.
