    Default Odyssey 2, question about tokens

    Hello! I am new to the group; I am mostly a coin-collector and I've been trying to collect some coins/tokens from vintage video games (like the tokens from some of the ULTIMA games and the one from the ZORK trilogy). I've seen that two Odyssey 2 titles had some "tokens". Quest for the Rings seems to have quite a few metal and plastic ones. Great Wall Street Fortune Hunt seems to have some rectangular plastic ones. My question is this: are these tokens from both games uniface, that is, is one side of the tokens completely blank? Or do both sides contain the exact same image/info?
    Thanks! Erik

    In Quest for the Rings The plastic tokens are hollow and really only have one side. The metal tokens however are engraved on both sides. As for Take the Money and Run, all of the "tokens" are plasics but pressed on both sides.

    Take The Money And Run! didn't have any tokens....

    Great Wall Street Fortune Hunt, Quest For The Rings, and Conquest Of The World were the Mastery Strategy games with various game board play pieces...

    -100 Power Base Unit (PBU) Chips
    ---Blue=1000 PBU's
    ---Red=500 PBU's
    ---While=100 PBU's

    Great Wall Street Fortune Hunt:
    - 2 Sets of Share/Margin Tokens (plastic)
    - 2 Prime Rate Tokens (small gold and silver cylinders)
    - 1 Time Frame Token (small black metal cylinder)

    Guest for the RIngs:
    Tokens
    -23 Castles (Symbols on underside - The Dungeons [x7], -Crystal Caverns [x6], The Infernoes [x4], Shifting Halls [x6])

    Doh, I knew that, really.

    I was looking at one box and thinking about another for some reason.
