<p>[QUOTE="Jwt708, post: 2129785, member: 32619"]I think it's a dealer's guess as Luke didn't get F-16s until 1982. The man I purchased it from bought it in the late 80s to early 90s. So why use tokens on a base in the 50s - 80s in the U.S.? There was no coin shortage. I forget now but I think it was by 1955 or 65 slot machines were outlawed on stateside bases. I don't understand what value there was in making them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
