The new TTC tokens are slightly fatter than the old ones -- and thus more difficult to insert into ye olde token holder. Damn you TTC!
Brass token used in a Haslingden (Lancashire UK) foundry. Probably used to check which worker were present. One of my Chattwood relatives worked at this foundry so perhaps it could be his.
The Branch Line Society along with TransPennine Express, ran the 'Class 170 Farewell Tracker' from Manchester Airport to Cleethorpes using a trio of Class 170/3 units, 170307, 170306 and 170303, which took in a number of loops and sidings along the way and a visit to Buxton. seen here picking up the token for the single track section to Buxton, along the freight only line past the Tunstead Quarry complex,
The tour would soon come back this way enroute to Sheffield and onwards to Cleethorpes.
After nearly 10 years working for TransPennine having come from South West Trains all nine of these units will be very soon moving on to Chiltern Railways.

Monopoly is derived from the Landlord's Game, a board game designed and patented by Lizzie G. Magie in 1904. She revised and renewed the patent on her game in 1924. The version Magie originated did not involve the concept of a monopoly.
In fact, the rules to the game had been invented in Washington DC in 1903 by a bold, progressive woman named Elizabeth Magie. But her place in the game's folk history was lost for decades and ceded to the man who had picked it up at his friend's house: Charles Darrow
This old token, also known as a bar chip is from a now closed bar which was located in Wilkes-Barré, PA.
Such chips were given when one patron wanted to buy another one a drink. Different shapes, and/or colors determined what type of drink was to be given.
Many bars had such tokens, but now with contemporary registers, paper slips are printed, usually with the value and date printed on it. This is designed to keep customers from trying to get a higher priced drink with a lower valued chip. And they are dated so that they must be used on the date issued.
These colorful and nostalgic collectibles have a good following of collectors.

I received this token for their slot machine when I ate there last spring, but the slot machine was broken, so I couldn't spend it. Perhaps another time. :)
Sometimes the stupidest possible thing works. We have to carry arround these lame RSA tokens to get into the corporate VPN, but like every tech person in SF, I'm already carrying my iPhone with me.
I tried to take this one step further and OCR the digits with various linux CLI tools because that would mean I could simply curl the required digits from a webpage and pipe them into the SSH login script, but it kept getting confused on certain numbers. I suppose one way to go about it is to sample the pixels for dark grey vs. light grey at each of the 7 points of LCD and then make a lookup table for each of the digits, but that's about when I started getting bored with the whole project.

My tokens for the Elegant Sweet Lolita Tea were OOAK tags decorated with embossed rubber stampings and Valentine's Day themed papers. Each tag had a "candy" detail cut out from paper treat bags I purchased a few years ago. I keep all my Valentine's craft ephemera in one box for easy access.

This is an undated but probably late Victorian public house 'check' or trade token issued at the Pall Hotel. It is made of brass, is 25mm in diameter and has a milled edge. The reverse is plain but on the obverse it says "PALL HOTEL, YEOVIL" and its value - 2D.
At this time two old pence could buy you a pint of stout.
Checks were frequently used in games, such as skittles or quoits where, for instance, players would 'chip in' a check to the 'kitty' which would be won by the winning team to redeem at the bar. By issuing checks a landlord could guarantee they would be spent in his establishment only.
