Tokens on this forum or not?

The first is a Missouri zinc tax token which was issued by the government and used as legal
tender during the '30's to facilitate the collection of tax below one cent. This is 1/10 cent token.
It is extremely common.

The second is essentially the same thing but intended for use in New Mexico and has a 1/2 c
value. This is much less commonly encountered than the Missouri token but there are only
a few dozen collectors of these so the value is quite nominal.

The third and/ or fourth are common examples of amusement tokens. Generally the fourth is
seen with a very plain or blank reverse die or a "no cash value" die. The third is a very common
die and is paired with many different reverses especially the Mill's Co (Chicago). These are likely
from the 1910's.

The final token is a manufacturers token. If memory serves they were apparel related. I believe
it's from the '40's (post war). This isn't hard to find but that may be only because there are so
few collectors of this type of item.
