Good For 1 Pack of Cigarettes" trade token, a type of token commonly used in the United States, particularly during the 1930s and 1940s.
Here's more information about this token:
Purpose: These tokens were primarily issued by businesses operating "trade stimulator" slot machines or vending machines.
Historical Context: In an era with strict anti-gambling laws, these machines offered non-cash payouts in the form of these tokens, which could then be redeemed for merchandise (like a pack of cigarettes) at the establishment, thus circumventing gambling regulations.
Material: Most of these tokens, including the one pictured, were typically made of brass.
Collectibility: "Good For 1 Pack of Cigarettes" tokens are popular items among collectors of exonumia, which refers to coin-like objects not officially issued as currency.
