<p>[QUOTE="Hommer, post: 8562621, member: 73266"]These are coins that I was never aware of as well. Our little town had a festival last weekend and my wife and I went. Its a very small town with shops and restaurants down both sides of 2 lane Main Street. We always go into every shop in town and buy junk we really don't need (except for the homemade molasses an preserves, we, or I, need those to shore up my figure) but it is fun.</p><p><br /></p><p>One antique shop had a whole box i would say probably 50 or so of these coins. I studied on them for a while and knew they had to have some importance in history but it never dawned on me they were ration tokens. I plan now to go back and get them or at least get the shop owner to properly label the box so the rest of the world knows what they are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
