Today's Cash Till Finds

Not exactly what you're expecting, but I think an interesting take
none the less:

I bought a toy cash till today (Tom Thumb, if anyone's interested in
numismatic oriented toys) and found the following bunged up in the
works:

1 plastic "Patriots at the Concord Bridge" token (Diznee)
1 aluminium 1954 play dime (Tex-a-Toy)
1 alum. 10c piece (no maker)
1 alum. 50c piece (no maker)
1 CuNi 1954 markka (Finland)
1 alum. 1954 5c (Italy)
1 steel 1918 10pf (Coblenz)
2 br 1945 1c (USA)

I find it interesting how old (US) play money manufacturers always
included 50c pieces. I guess they were simply reflecting the fact that
the things were actually used. I can't recall ever seeing one in a
play money set when I was a kid - but I've noted that educational
money makers are including them as well as Apollo 11th dollars and
diznee dollars.

Padraic.
