In a narrow sense, trade tokens are "good for" tokens, issued by merchants. Generally, they have a merchant's name or initials, sometimes a town and state, and a value legend (such as "good for 5¢" or other denomination) somewhere on the token. Merchants that issued tokens included general stores, grocers, department stores, dairies, meat markets, drug stores, saloons, bars, taverns, barbers, coal mines, lumber mills and many other businesses. The era of 1870 through 1920 marked the highest use of "trade tokens" in the United States, spurred by the proliferation of small stores in rural areas. There were thousands of small general and merchandise stores all over the United States, and many of them used trade tokens to promote trade and extend credit to customers. <a href="/wiki/Aluminum" class="mw-redirect" title="Aluminum">Aluminum</a> tokens almost always date after 1890, when low-cost production began. <a href="/wiki/Wooden_nickel" title="Wooden nickel">Wooden nickels</a>, another type of token, were usually issued by a merchant or bank as a promotion, sometimes redeemable for a specific item. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Slot_machines">Slot machines</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Token_coin&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Slot machines"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Coins-9626.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Coins-9626.jpg/220px-Coins-9626.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Coins-9626.jpg/330px-Coins-9626.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Coins-9626.jpg/440px-Coins-9626.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2816" data-file-height="1872" /></a><figcaption>Token coins in an arcade game</figcaption></figure> <p>Metal token coins are used in lieu of cash in some coin-operated <a href="/wiki/Arcade_game" title="Arcade game">arcade games</a> and <a href="/wiki/Casino" title="Casino">casino</a> <a href="/wiki/Slot_machine" title="Slot machine">slot machines</a>.
