for sale Experimental Gaming Token

This is a sample of a brass token that Franklin Mint made in the standard token size. I don't have the record on this particular one, but they made 300-500 of most of the types. The holder is from a Howdy Herz auction quite a number of years ago. The sample probably dates to the 1960's as FM made gaming tokens from 1965-1969, and again in 1979 for about 5 years. They've made none in the last 25 years, to my knowledge.

I'm not sure how they were issued but some of them are in shrink-wrapped cards with the production data on them. They may have been offered to collectors but I've never seen a set for sale and have had to pick them up one by one. I've found 13 different so far. This is one of my duplicates.

Price is $15, delivered.
