So there we go, I hope you will agree it's top-class nerdity, but also I hope of interest to some people out there, and if the information can be used to combat one of the said terminally hard of thinking, all the better.

Correct. 'Tis an odd store and the closes equivalent I can think of in CA is Orchard (now Outdoor) Supply Hardware, but they don't sell tires. Maybe Bass Pro, though Canadian TIre exonumia is a draw.

It depends who you ask, if you get somebody in the exonumia Community who collects counter-struck coins then the value is in how much you want it

I ran them through AI - they aren't a known thing. No instances of any coming up for sale or auction so 🤷‍♀️ These go back further than mom - to my grandparents who probably got them in the 50s or 60s given that the coins depicted on them are all highly sought after

I'm asking after them in r/exonumia

TIL "exonumia"!

This is one of the appeals of exonumia collecting, the backstories of all the people long gone, in locations that are still around today.

It is no secret that I collect coins. But I also collect exonumia. To clarify, coins are legal tender usually issued by a government. “For all debts public and private.” Exonumia are coin like things ...

I'm a numismatist and I focus on some exonumia. Hard Times tokens were an alternative form of currency during Jackson's & Van Buren's terms because they put the economy in the toilet. A lot of them were struck with unflattering images & slogans against Jackson.

As we wrap up the year, Numista has reached an incredible milestone: 400,000 types of coins 🪙, tokens, medals, banknotes 💵 and paper exonumia are now described in the catalog 🎉.

Thank you to the thousands of numismatic enthusiasts who contribute to the catalog, adding 130 new types every day 💙.

Thanks, I didn't know of these & I learned a new word "Exonumia." It's interesting that they are very male-oriented from what I can tell (not that women in these various areas don't get them). I wonder why they are not given to mothers who suffer in childbirth or lose and organ in pregnancy.
