Tax tokens
Does anyone else have tax tokens from various states? Sales tax tokens were made starting in 1935 to give change for sales taxes when the total came up as a fraction of a cent and rounding up would be perceived as an unfair profit for the seller. Have you seen them?

Here are a few tax tokens. The New Mexico token is apparently pretty rare. I had never heard of these until we inherited the collection.
