<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 1153574, member: 11521&quot;]What you have is a slot token that was used in slot machines between WWI and WWII. I recognized your token as one that was shown in an article that I was reading just last night. The article can be found here: <a href="http://cctn.ccgtcc.com/tokens.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cctn.ccgtcc.com/tokens.pdf" rel="nofollow">A Brief History of Gaming Tokens</a> by Vince Mowery. The article appeared in the July-August-September 2002 issue of Casino Chip and Token News. The article is a very interesting read. (I ran across the article when I was researching a couple of early gambling tokens I bought on eBay.) </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I will quote a few excerpts from the article to give you an idea of how (and why) your slot token was used. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The quote below applies to your slot token:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You can view a photo of an example of your slot token on page 7 of the article (page 85 in the magazine). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think you made a good find. A collector of slot tokens would probably be happy to add it to his collection. The number on your slot token - 41000 - may make it more desirable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
