Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 10/19/2010 6:59 pm So I'd received this token thing a while ago, and everytime I look at the telephone part it cracks me up a little. It has a kind of special groove, which is why I'm guessing that it's for a coin-op machine. I've seen slanted tokens before for arcade games, but this one has a telephone on it. It's pretty thickish - almost 3 millimetres. From the groove up it's almost 2mm. Diameter is 19mm. What's the year on it, and other writing that's on it? Value? Any help is appreciated.

Angielczyk Valued Member Israel 423 Posts	Posted 10/20/2010 05:19 am These telephone tokens were dis continued in the 1980's when telephone cards came into use. Just to add that the word telephone as well as being in Hebrew on the token is also there in Arabic Report this Post to the Staff
