I'm surprised they don't seem to have any of the tokens that nearly every tavern in my area has always offered. There are many collectors who have amassed huge quantities of these. Even our local museum and historical society has a huge collection, all coming from the large number of taverns that have operated here for over the past 150 years or so (even during Prohibition, when they offered soft drinks legally, and probably alcoholic beverages as well, to their trusted customers). Then again, I'm in Wisconsin, where taverns seem to be on every corner in every town, village, and city.
