No token arcades in New Zealand till the 90's I think, we used 20c pieces, lots and lots of 20c pieces.

i have one aladdins castle token that was laying at the bottom of my spyhunter cab. this spyhunter cab spent most of its life at a aladdins castle and it smells delicious. a mix of pizza and other things i cant describe but i love the smell.  everytime i open the coin door i take a big whiff :D

i just checked ebay and some of the old rare chuck e cheese tokens go for a pretty high price. i like the look of the early eighties pizza time theatre tokens, the mouse looks cool compared to the current version.

I have a couple of old Fun 'n Games tokens, which was the old arcade in the local mall.

FractalWalk:
Just ran across an old "Space Port" token from my college days.

I "sorta" have some..
One of the last bastions of early arcade games for me - Magic Mountain in Adelaide - was torn down recently. I grabbed a few tokens before-hand.

They're not nearly as good as the BYOAC tokens.. and they're not the same as they were when I was a kid, because they used to have "magic mountain" on one side and "downtown" on the other, if memory serves. But downtown vanished years ago...

I've been meaning to photoshop a gravestone with the writing from Magic Mountain's tokens on it ... "Magic Moutain. 2004. No Cash Value".
