How are tokens collected?
Given the wide variety of tokens, collectors tend to specialize by type, geographical area, or other subdivisions. For instance, a collector of trade tokens may just collect those from one state, or by one particular type of issuing business (e.g. General Store, Saloon, or Billiard Hall). Some may have a collection of wooden nickels representing one from each state while others may try to collect every variety known from a single restaurant chain. The way tokens are collected is an individual choice – that contributes to the interest!
