bonham3 Valued Member United States 346 Posts	Posted 10/19/2007 5:27 pm Just wanted to post. Circa 50's and early 60's Two are trade tokens from my hometown in massachusetts. The empty one is all aluminum and it had an Indian Head cent pressed into it. I popped it out when I was a kid :) The other is an old portsmouth N.H. parking token. The aluminum ones also came with a Wheat cent in them. A lot of the stores in my area gave them away. Wish I kept many, as they sell around here for a min. of 6 bucks ea.

t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 10/20/2007 12:02 pm No unfortunately you have to get there early. Many dealers start packing up at 2pm to get home Sunday evening at a decent time. I go to most of the regular monthly coin shows in Nashua, NH, Westford, MA and Auburn, MA. Also when I get the shakes I sometimes go to a small (mostly stamps) show in Dedham, MA. Last month I even drove down to Hartford, CT, and up to Manchester, NH so you know I have a serious addiction. I don't always buy something though. Next weekend I'm all set to go to Coinfest in Old Greenwich, CT. Report this Post to the Staff
