Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 10/28/2024 7:39 pm Googling "yumeka token", I found that someone posted one of these on a long-archived Reddit post, with the following answer given that it almost certainly was a pachinko token. No picture remained, but it surely is the same token: Quote: one says "yumeya" which could translate to "dream room." the kanji in the center is yume or "dream." Google Translate confirms this translation of the central character of your 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. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 10/28/2024 9:26 pm Good start to the discussion @numis and @sap nailed it. See below for a link to the 2023/2024 interim annual report of Dynam Japan Holdings Co., Ltd. It explains that this holding company (with its core business being operators of Pachinko Halls) has eight divisions, including Yume Corp: Quote: Yume Corporation was acquired into the Group in November 2015. They have been conducting chain store management since its establishment just like Dynam. Yume Corporation operates 31 halls under the Yumeya brand in Japan. https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/l...20700367.pdf "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
