ccobb Valued Member United States 485 Posts	Posted 04/16/2019 11:28 am Sorry, IDK the proper terminology for these "coins", but was surprised to find them in this set that I just happened to open yesterday! Report this Post to the Staff

Believe they are called a 'mint token'. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/in...&p=1&x=0&y=0 Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Edited by chafemasterj 04/16/2019 11:41 am Report this Post to the Staff
mikem007 Valued Member United States 318 Posts	Posted 04/16/2019 1:18 pm These tokens are in mint sets of the 1980s and 1990s. I have over a thousand to dump. I handed several out in change recently. And found out two nights ago that coinstar machines reject them. Report this Post to the Staff

They are struck on copper plated zinc cent planchets. Weight is right, size is right, composition is right. Not sure how they would tell them from regular Zincolns. Report this Post to the Staff

Bret Pillar of the Community United States 1913 Posts	Posted 04/17/2019 4:14 pm It would be interesting to see if a vending machine that takes small dollars would take that 1982 token. Report this Post to the Staff
mikem007 Valued Member United States 318 Posts	Posted 04/17/2019 6:25 pm Your interest to see was taken tonight. I dropped 5 tokens in and it took them. Several nights ago at another machine they were repeatedly rejected. Report this Post to the Staff
