Got to love the $5.00 for all boxes at the LCS!

Neat items. WOW a 10 cents token. Can't read the date info on that but it must be from quite a while ago.

Very neat tokens. I especially like the Pony Express. Hadn't seen anything like that before.

That was another one of the bonus ones as to age in the box there were a number of ones from the 1930's.

 

Neat! Can't wait to see them.

Very nice finds. Can't wait for the next round. You seem to find better and better stuff each time.

@Circus - that "1930" piece is actually zinc, and is part of Shell's Prime Ministers of Canada medallion set, which came out at about 1970 or so, and is basically parallel to the US Presidents medallion set (one piece with each fill out). There's also a set of brass coat-of-arms / provincial flower pieces.

That is weird It is 32mm dia and weighs 11.5. Were they all that size with the shell tokens, all of the US gas brands that had games over the years always had their brand on the tokens. it sure didn't age and patina like other zinc tokens. Interesting information.

thanks
