    Have had these for a couple of years now. Probably shared them when I got them.

    The group of tokens in the bottom image is extremely cool but NONE of them compare to the wine token. It's an extreme capped die with what what is left of a second and a third token that got hammered until all that is left is a ring around the rim and a ring inside the inner rim.

    I daydream about the small fortune I'd have if they were U.S. coins and NOT tokens.

    Interesting items! I suspect these would normally be discarded with little care as to collectible value. It's cool that you were able to put together a little collection of them.

    Very nice! Maybe the first one was a cap over the cork on a wine bottle?

    great to see you post Jason!!

    My sister was a teacher at Creston High in Creston, Iowa so I like that token for obvious reasons. Thanks for sharing it!

    I had probably TWICE as many but gave quite a few away as gifts or contest prizes on another message board.

    The sad part is that I've found normal versions of all those coins (except the wine one) just from searching through bags of US coins. I'm sure they weren't worth what I ended up paying for them.
