DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 02/24/2009 4:15 pm Welcome! How does this compare to the size of a US quarter? I think it might be an arcade token. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16849 Posts	Posted 02/27/2009 8:20 pm Your first one does indeed look like a generic amusement / parking / laundromat / turnstile token. CertainlyI've seen tokens with a similar styled eagle-and-shield. The second one is a "Reader's Digest" replica ancient coin. Quite a few have turned up here on the forum. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.

WpgLwr Pillar of the Community Canada 1082 Posts	Posted 02/27/2009 9:39 pm Well, if it's the same size as a quarter, then it's a safe bet that it's an amusement token. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16849 Posts	Posted 03/01/2009 7:58 pm We've just had an object posted that's clearly a generic token, with an identical FREEDOM wings-and-shield obverse that this piece has. So yes, it's a token. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.
