Anyone have an idea where this token is from that I found MDing? Front has an eagle with stars aaround it (20) and an HH mintmark below the eagle.? Back reads "NO CASH VALUE' and an 'RM' mintmarked below it.

Looks like a carnival ride/arcade token to me.

I'm not sure what this token was use for, but they sure got around.
There have been several posted on the forum, but I don't think anyone has ID'ed them yet.
Here's a link to one of the other post, with a link to another post inside of that...

Happy hunting~

Re: found tooken help

I like tokens! Here's some reference. Your token could have been used for many things, a car wash for example. Does make you wonder, if you pay $10.00 for a car wash and get this token to put into the machine, why not just buy the cheap tokens direct from the supplier, LOL, and you can guess the rest of the story, just kidding!

I've got that same token around here somewhere.I've had it since I was a kid that I got from our arcade down here in FL back in around the early 80's.I'll try to find it and get a picture up.Maybe they distributed them all over.HHGL NATE

Found one years ago, daughter saw it was nothing really valuable and threw it into the yard. 10 years later, while checking the yard I found it again.LOL
