I've been looking for a potty coin and this one fit the bill. Not expensive and it's not your usual type.

 

Just purchased a lot of 57 patriotic tokens, store cards, and medals!

I have a couple of counterstamped coins that were used as Railroad ID, but they were more "homemade" than yours. This is a really nice one. I'll see if I can find the pics, dwhiz.

Here's a demonetized 1949 Israel 250 Prutah that I carry in my pocket. This is the 'without pearl' variety, which has a drastically lower mintage but is still "less valuable" than 'with pearl.' They chose a design from ancient Judean coinage. It has a litttle heft to it, and is larger around than a Half Dollar.

 

Here's the two ID badges I have, dwhiz. I may have posted these before, but I'm not sure. The Bush piece is both engraved and counterstamped.

I miss the creator of this thread, Detecto. I wonder what he's up to?

Some President James Monroe movie prop coins.

They were manufactured by the Los Angeles Rubber Stamp company for film studios starting in the 1920's.


Movie prop coin - President Monroe - Monroe Doctrine
Aluminum, 35mm, 3.87gm

This token was manufactured by the Los Angeles Rubber Stamp Company for the Los Angeles Monroe Doctrine Centennial Exposition which was held in 1923. The token misspells the word "doctrine" with "doctrone". The United States also made a commemorative half dollar for the Exposition.

The next two are generic President Monroe tokens. They are hard to sell or buy on the internet as they have no text inscriptions.


Movie prop coin - President Monroe - Bird of Paradise
White metal, 38mm, 20.68gm
I have seen this one in several films.


Movie prop coin - President Monroe - Seated Liberty 1866
White metal, 38mm, 19.52gm
I have yet to see this one in a film.

 

These two came a day or two ago, I posted them on another thread.

 

Here's 3 I picked up at the Red Rose CC show yesterday.

 

and this from the bay
This info was provided by the seller:
Issued in the early 1950's by the Jonesville Coal Co. about 30 miles outside of Wasilla, Alaska. The company did a promo campaign by paying all their employees in silver dollars with a "THIS IS A COAL DOLLAR" sticker attatched. This was to show the local Alaskans just how much the merchants and communities depended on the Jonesville Coal Company and how important the coal mine was to the economy. It is estimated that less than 200 exist today.
