Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, and related objects. While numismatists are often characterized as students or collectors of coins, the discipline also includes the broader study of money and other payment media used to resolve debts and the exchange of goods
TOKENS a story of a business , it's owners , when / why / where and the people who used it .
"Although coins are interesting when you learn about them you learn the history of a country and most of all you learn the history of how the victorious/conquerors wants you to remember it . Tokens are so much more personal than coins . Once you start with tokens you want to know more of the storekeepers , the traders of yesteryear , the companies who thought it necessary to issue these tokens , why they where introduced , where (town) and the history of the place , the usage of these tokens (who) and what eventually happened to them ..."
