7-11/Slurpee Discs Question

Question: I saw one in another post that says it's from 1992...did 7-11/Slurpee have some from earlier years?


I could have sworn there was some sort of 7-11 disc that used to collect from the bottom of the Slurpee cups around 86 or 87. I know I was about 13 (1987) when I was into them. I know it couldn't have been the 1992 ones I collected...I was 18, in the military and out of the country at that time.

I am trying to recall all the oddball cards i had as a kid. I know I had a TON of the '86 Burger King cards. I lived near a BK and used to get them for free all the time. image



Thanks,
EB31

    I have some from 1984. They are football but I am pretty sure they made baseball ones as well back then.

    Yea, I asked before I checked Ebay.

    I see they had a test set out in 83-84. And it does look like there was a mainstream set out in 1986.

    I want to now try and track down a complete checklist for 86.

    The earliest 7-11 slurpee product is 1983 - coins.

    After that they are regional and some national and they did do a jumbo coin in 84.

    The 1983 set is only 12 players from the Angels and Dodgers. It was only distributed in the Los Angeles area.

    According to the Stanard Cat on BB - there's a few issues:

    Eastern, Mideastern, western region and Jumbos.

    I think 1986 was the year where they put 3 different players on each coin. Is there any difference in the regions of coins? Do they say the region or have a special color on the back?

    In the description, in doesn't say anything about color differences - my guess? None.

    Just that they issued 16 different coins for the four different regions - 1 3/4" - which feature 3 players which can be seen alternately by tilting from side to side. EIGTH of the coins are the same in every region - each coin is numbered on the back.

    Of interest - in all the regions - coin #1 has Gooden on it alone.

    I know we must have some coin experts here?
