I don't know what the tokens were used for, but Wu-Tang is the musical group Wu-Tang Clan and the symbol is from their album Forever released in 1997. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wu-Tang_Forever

Wow, that was super fast...
A quick check on Feebay turned up nothing / no coins like this for sale..
wonder if they are worth anything ?
Lots of Wu-tang stuff, much of it going unsold ....
or sold for pennies...

Collectible coins that were thrown to win pog cards ( i think pog is the right word)

Maybe I spoke too soon. Its definitely not the old bottle cap game of pogs that I am familiar with but maybe the childrens modern game used a brass slammer coin. I dont know.

I still doubt that these are slammer coins from the 90's children game but I guess the time period would match. I think just some kind of promotion like the link says. Wu-Tang doesnt look like a childrens group.
