Are they normally holed? At least one even has an interesting doubled die and the die cracks are interesting too. Report this Post to the Staff

The purpose of the hole was so replayed tokens didn't keep giving product out more than once to the same player. people were more likely to play when the tokens were given rather than money. Of course it was all a dodge to get around the gambling laws. Report this Post to the Staff
