Are these dinosaur coins considered tokens? [решено]

All three are 6.3 grams. I, unfortunately, do not have any more information than that.

Hello,

I would consider them as Exonumia, since they are not intended to circulate in place of currency.

​I want to make sure I understand. They wouldn’t be considered tokens, because they aren’t replacing currency. A Chuck E. Cheese token, on the other hand, directly replace the use of a quarter in the arcade machines so that makes them tokens?

As far as I understand, yes.

You might have to take that up with the master refs.

I found a little more information on them. If I’m posting this in the wrong forum, please let me know.

They were made by Hoffman Mint. I’m trying to find out as much as I possibly can about them.

​Cass,
I believe your classification is indeed correct. These are exonumia of a kind not tokens. A token would have a place in commerce in place of currency like subways, tolls, arcades, amusement parks, observatories, private merchant tokens etc....
