For most forever, I've heard the old saying..."Don't take any wooden nickles". I've never really understood the meaning of it..but I assume it means they're not worth anything.
I think I kinda like them tho...and have these newly acquired ones in my little collection of old tokens.
Since I was taking a photo of the tokens..I took pics of a few more older coins. In my years as a small grocery store owner, thousands and thousands of coins have come across my store counters, some of them......a few, are really good ones. Some really old silver..some not so old. I think my favourite older money..are the silver certificates. I think they're wonderful...
