I found a token, made me say, huh?

[BigWaveDave]

We've seen these personalized arcade tokens before, the Good Luck piece, be it for a wedding, or event, whatever...
This one, I can't figure out. As best as I can tell, it reads:

ALWAYS FOREVER YOUQ B.LLE YNU ....could say YOUQ BILLE YNU

Huh? The back is chewed up, can't make out the design in the middle, if there is one.


So, I guess this is a unique piece, unless someone can translate the crazy name....
Thanks for looking!

Amusement parks, arcades and other points of interests had machines to custom stamp souvenirs/luck charms. Sometimes you got stuck with whatever letters you put in be it right or wrong. I have a few myself with "screwy nonsensical" writing on them.

[FONT=&quot]There are several forms of blanks made, and of course the stamping on them is as individual as the people who buy them.
The left token design is that of a flag; like this:

Here's an example of one type of machine that made these. No backspace key on it.

Great info guys... Nice to see the machine that made the token... Yea, this looks like a terrible spelling error, probably a sweetheart piece gone wrong... I see the flag now, thanks Mackaydon.

Looks like it says "YNU forever always young Billie "
Cool piece of someone's past.

Congrats

Yes, you couldn't undo mistakes on those old machines. I have a bunch myself. Congrats

 

[WHADIFIND]

I agree. That's why you found it. Misspelled it, so they threw it away.

Good call...

I have about 7 of them and some are nonsensical, as if they let a 5 year old pick and choose the lettering. They are cool finds in my book, because there is a story behind it, since they were stamped by individuals.
