My favorite Bi-metallic .....By Larry Friemel
---------------------------------------------
I think this is a great subject...

The favorite coin which I possess is probably that which seem technically 
significant.  Maybe this is because of my engineering background. 
Obviously 
the Italians by being the first to successfully mass produce bi-metallic
coins 
for general circulation make their 1982 500 Lire an important coin.  Then
the 
French I think took it one step further and perfected the bi-metallic coin
from 
a production process when they introduced the 20 Francs tri-metallics in
1990.  
(Note: By the way a recent article from the Royal Canadian Mint shows that
they 
too have produced trial tri-metallic coins and they indicate that they have

demonstrated the process to the point that they can mass produce them
should 
they desire in the future.)  In this category, I also place my Israel
piedfort 
coins because of their unique thickness.  I have talked to the mint which 
produces these coins and they say that they believe this thickness is
probably 
the maximum which they can use in producing a bi-metallic coin.  Lastly and
I 
really think my most favorite is the 1995 Austrain 500 Shilling Ecu.  I
like 
its size, its design and the item which I think sets it a part from the
rest is 
the fact that the stars in the outer ring are punched completely through
the 
ring.  There are 11 star holes which you can see through from either side! 


Bi-metallic Gaming Tokens...By Martin Peeters
---------------------------------------------
Gaming Tokens are in very variation available. There are Colored, plastic
and 
Bi-metallic Gaming Tokens. Some of those (10 Dollar) Gaming Tokens I have.
They 
are from various gaming hotels in Las Vegas or other gaming city's. The 10 
Dollar Gaming Tokens are made, inner ring from .999 Silver and the outher
ring 
is Gold colored. For my knowledge there are about 73 pieces made and costs 
about 17.50 US Dollars. Where are there available?
