    Which token? I think you could find some made from just about any non-volatile metal on the periodic table.

    Medals used:
    white medal, bronze, alumminum, copper, silver, plastic, wood, what am I leaving out ?

    That is exactly what they are,, No living President is allowed to be coined on these new DPD's.. I have been complaining for years that they need to do away with Dead Presidents On Our Coins,, and Now look What They have Done.. They Are All Going To Be On There Now!!!... image

    No.

    There is no similar composition to these anywhere except the identical sac dollars.

    Other countries do use our cu/ ni clad cu composition for their coins and the sac dol-
    lar is used as legal tender in a few countries so it's entirely possible this composition
    will be used in other coins in the future.
