Saw one at a show last year and should have bought it My dad left me a ton of old Moxie bottles and cans so it caught my attention.. I went back, and it was sold.. So the hunt is on
As salesman fanned out over the Midwest, they often handed aluminum tokens that read, “Good for one drink of Moxie at the Moxie Bottle Wagon.” These tokens had the image of the single-horse Moxie Bottle Wagon stamped on Because these tokens were quite elegant and shiny, a practice developed where young girls and older ladies would punch a hole in the token, loop a chain or decorative cord through them, and wear these coins as pendants. On the other hand, men and boys saw them as good-luck pieces, so they often ended up in drawers, instead of being handed to the Bottle Wagon drivers for a free drink of Moxie. As a result, many of these continue to be discovered and are a coveted Moxie collectible.
