ccg Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Some sort of token or counter, more likely a counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccg Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Yes. The second one looks like it was meant to be engraved with something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firempire Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 the seacond one couldnt be an error maby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyg Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 These two are actually slot machine (one armed bandit) tokens from the UK, though one is odd. The 2 is a 2d token, usually found with R&W on the back - the odd part is the number on the back, it could be a catalogue number, maybe this was a sample sent to a prospective buyer? - we will probably never know. The second is quite often found with no inscription, I also have an example with the same wreath and the words '5p TOKEN VALUE' in the middle.
