YOU ARE BIDDING ON TWO TOKENS:
1 - "Small Y" Token - The small "Y" New York City subway token. It is 16 mm in diameter and made of brass. This series was used during the years 1950 though 1970. The fare rose to $.15 by the end of it's use.
1 - "Five Boroughs" Pentagram Token - This token was newly minted in 1991 for the fare increase to $1.25, but not used at that time. Instead they were held until the $1.50 fare increase in 1995. 60 million of these new tokens were minted. The token was finally phased out in favor of the Metrocard system, just after midnight on April 13, 2003.
THESE TOKENS SHOW WEAR - ESPECIALLY THE SMALL "Y" TOKEN. THE TOKENS IN THE PHOTO ARE WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS I'LL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER THEM. |
