I'm just very curious as to what it is. It doesn't seem to be currency but the only info on the web I could find is on the presidential $1 coin program... Any help would be appreciated.

, to the community.

I have a set of these tokens that were issued in the 1990's, they are unofficial and if my memory is correct were put out by one of the gasoline companies as a giveaway when you purchased gas.

I think it was Shell gasoline. I have a partial set with the board to place them in (somewhere).

It was Shell Oil, and they did a state set also (guess gasoline marketing departments are only slightly smarter than the governments)
