It is probably an arcade token from the 80's. I have about a hundred different ones. There were millions of them made during the arcade boom. -Dan


It is not worth much if anything. Keep it and put it in your token collection.

Looking very quickly at the Chuck E. Cheese tokens web page, I don't see any refeence to tokens with an Eagle on the obverse. Seems as they have the 'Rat' on the obverse. It also appears that CEC tokens are dated and this is not. Can you provide more insight as to why you believe this is CEC token and if so, what year does it come from?

LOL. This would be the extent of my token collection thus far.

Acorrding to this linkit was an early 1980's Chuck E. Cheese token before the rat became famous. Still it's common because every arcade uses that token reverse design.

I don't think your token is from CEC. Some one might have bought it into the CEC store.

Have Fun

Thats a generic arcade token. My daughter works at ChuckEcheese and once a week they pull all the generic and competetors tokens, count them and toss them in the trash. They consider them a loss.

Man

There's a history of CEC tokens site...that is cool.
