    All "brothel tokens" are fantasy tokens manufactured for tourists.

    Here's one from Jackson, California:

    Jackson California Kitty's Kat House Brothel Token
    Brass, 37 mm, 11.23 gm
    Obverse: KITTY'S KAT HOUSE / JACKSON, CALIF. / HOME FOR TIGERS
    Reverse: ALL NIGHT / $3 / CHECK

    Note the similarity of the reverses.

    Tourists or "tourists"?

    I have seen a couple of supposed brothel tokens at coin shows years ago.... never purchased one, but they were always displayed prominently and got a lot of laughs and commentary. Cheers, RickO

    The $3 deal seems a bit optimistic, but the 50 cent option is reasonable.

    A straight date when I was growing up in the early 60's was $10. Around the world (all nighter with all the ladies you wanted) was $100. These were the prices at the Moonlight Ranch east of Carson.

    Using the wayback machine to 1969, I got some great back massages at a house in Cholon. Masseuse walked on my back while standing and holding on to two rails high on the walls. Steam cabinet to sit in with just my head exposed, before to loosen everything up. Even got a straight razor shave to boot. Definitely worth a carton of Salems. Peace Roy
