What kind of comm. tokens are these?
They are Presidential tokens of some type, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Franklin Pierce. Iforgot all about them untill tonite. I metal detected them from my yard several years ago. They are copper and it looks like they were plated at one time possibly with gold? I know I have never been able to find anything on them.

Tokens
Sarge, I think they are redemption tokens but I can't make out what they say on the reverse side..Can you tell me what is printed on the reverse?
Years ago "Service Stations" used to give them out to customers and it was kinda like the green stamp program, the more you collected the more you could exchange them for gas, oil, services and the such.:snowman:
