Most of these tokens are from a hoard that the family had stashed and then found.

 

Actually got this in change yesterday..Not sure if this is exonumia (I looked it up and it's old currency) but never seen one before so I saved it

 

It was real money, demonetized a while back, see this link:

1901 Barber pop-out dime. Looks like it could have been made for the Indian Motorcycle. Really neat piece. The feather is in gold and the pin.

 

Kinda got bitten by the Transit Token Collecting Bug.. I've had a few NYC Subway tokens for probably thirty years but never really thought about collecting other transit tokens until recently and now I'm hooked...

I love how there are so many different varieties and designs.. many look similar but there are still so many of them out there from all over the country.. totally having a fun time searching them out

It's not Paranumismatica but I couldn't resist my favorite race horse.

The only horse Man o' war ever lost to (Sir Barton) he later defeated in a match Race by 17 lengths.

Down on the stud farm, Man o' War sired War Admiral.

 

Here is a rare one in the sense that not many have survied the years being made of card stock. Good for .05 cross village Mich
