Arcade coins in general are not a very popular numismatic collectible. Probably because they are not very rare, poor designs, base metals, etc. But I'm no snob, I hoard just about anything, so I have some in my collection. If you look on ebay they come up sometimes and I'm sure someone wrote a book or two about them. There are probably some that are pretty old and I would find them interesting.

Yea I have a box of 'coin like objects'. Most of the 'coins' in there are part of collecting sets, I have a few 'harry potter coins' and also a few with footballers on as well as a teenage mutant ninja turtle coin. Got a few arcade tokens and ride tokens in there. You often get them turn up in the mixed coin boxers at car-boot sales. I think every house in the UK has a few in a vase or draw.
