    Default Custom Tokens...I Need Help with Ideas!!!

    For years, I've wanted custom tokens for my slot machine collection, but I can't decide on the name to display on the tokens. Here are some that have been kicked around:

    1. Mark's Gaming Center
    2. Mark's Casino
    3. Mark's Gambling Saloon
    4. Mark's House of Slots

    Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    If I placed an order, I'd want a slot machine icon in the middle of the token with the words centered at the top and bottom of the token...so the name would have to be Vegas, casino, gambling, slot machine, etc. themed...using words like "video" or "arcade" in the name wouldn't match the theme/slot machine icon.

    In the past, I've seen copper colored tokens that have a slot machine icon on them, but I don't own any of these. Does anyone have a picture of one of those tokens that they can post to this thread for me to use as a reference? I'd also welcome any slot machine images/icons you may have.

    Thanks everyone!

    mark's house of slots catches my eye,

    the copper tokens are a little lighter weight and may cause problems in some slots.

    brass is the best, but more expensive

    I'm not too good with naming, but if I can think of any others I'll post again.

    Here is the copper tokens. Front and back. I would not recomend the tokens themseves. If they get wet or damp they corrode. As luckydog sais they are light, even though I havn't had a problem with them in that way.

    Thanks for the input! Yes, brass is my favorite in terms of appearance, but I think it might be too costly to swap out all my old tokens for brass. I'm gonna try some samples first. I'm hoping zinc with brass plating will be heavy enough to work in all of my machines.

    Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm hoping I can find a clip art image that comes close to this design.

    I could see a large X on the coin made to look like cross bones with a small skull in the center. In the open space on the top of the coin and X it would say MARKS. On the bottom open space of the X it would say SPOT. It would be like a pirate treasure piece play on words and read: X MARKS SPOT. Just a fun play on words and still tells the story of your gaming center.
