Very Envious Mal, the only one I need too. Anyone with any spares I am happy to swap.

Hi,

I have always been curious why these tokens were moved from "Other Tokens Used For Payments". These tokens where from my knowledge and previous use, never used in any machines. They were used as payment for rides within Ocean Beach Amusement Park. I was told when they were first moved it was because they were also used in machines, but that simply wasn't the case. These are now no longer in use and the vendors have moved to a digital system. Not trying to cause aggraviation, just looking for some clarity. Are they here purely as a catch all, etc... 

Thanks
Brian
