    Ah...hope I didn't get you excited...I just thought it was a cool piece with a sentimental tie-in and I got excited for you. I know nothing of who, when, or how many were made. I do like it though and I think you didn't go wrong for a dollar.

    Got these in the mail today.
    The medals are 36mm 25g of 92.5 Sterling Silver. They all came with original packaging. I got all 3 for $22. I believe the melt to be a bit over $34 on these. Not too shabby.

    Thanks. I really like them and the OGP has toned them in some interesting colors.

    Picked this out of the token box at my LCS today. I love the French designs.

    I forgot that I picked this up yesterday at the LCS for 25c. I pulled it out of the box because I liked the shape. I bet this token has seen some things....

    I would have got it for a quarter. I like the odd shaped tokens not to mention the lady.

    I'm curious how much these tokens originally cost.
    Edit - Apparently they were 25c a piece.

    Like most co-op mechs the value could be adjusted for what the operator wanted. in the 70's I installed alarms on the coin op boxes in adult book stores peep show video, live peek a bo booth etc. and since there was no value imprinted on them they didn't have to have new ones each time they raised the prices. Some shops they were .50 each others were $1.00 or $2.00 each.
