deeph2o New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 02/09/2018 3:25 pm Hello all, 1. I saw a previous topic in which the original poster asked whether people collect wooden nickels... 2. (I DO...) -The topic was locked, and I could not reply. 3. I wanted to add a question: Does anybody know of any specific places (tourist traps, etc) that sell these? I know that one of the shops in Wall Drug (South Dakota) has these, and so does a visitor center in Colorado, just outside the National Forest entrance to Mount Evans. I ask, because I travel a lot, and do a lot of hiking, mountain climbing, etc. I have been to plenty of tourist places (like I mentioned above) and I see many of the elongated penny machines, but very few wooden nickels. I have found a website that tracks places for the pennies, and I also collect those. I use that website, and plan accordingly, to try to find locations for those. A database of such places for those of us who collect WNs would be great! Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/09/2018 4:26 pm Contact the Wooden Money Collectors Society. They can help you with that. As you know, you can get huge lots of tokens on ebay for very cheap prices. I'm sure I have a bag of them haunting some dark corner. Other than the flats and Tenino issues most of the rest are not worth much - but they are fun. Report this Post to the Staff

qaman Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 02/10/2018 4:41 pm Some touristy gift shops have them sometimes you need to ask because they are hard to find. I belong to the IOWMC great group. I personally like the rounds. The IkoTams sale every year has them. I have about 700 mainly US. Report this Post to the Staff
