Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 10/08/2015 4:22 pm I think this may be worth a little more research. The American Eagle (note the striped shield) is common on US arcade tokens, but not Japanese pachinko. This could just be an unusual design, or there is a possibility that you have a more vintage token, perhaps from Vietnam or Korea (SEGA stands for Service Games, and was founded as a Pachinko manufacturer geared towards US soldiers in 1952).

They have offices in many places, including Vietnam. Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taisei_Corporation Report this Post to the Staff
