The 1965 copper Thunderbuck slot tokens

The top one is partially on its way to becoming a "no birds" version. I think there is only one version but the dies wore after a lot of strikes and the birds started to get weaker. You can barely see them on the obverse of the top token.
1965 was the first year for private tokens in Nevada and these made by Michigan Tool were one of the first tries. They made tokens in copper for about a dozen different Nevada casinos that year.
