NumberNumbers of the tokens
These numbers are made by "Joseph v. Pernicano".
1. The first 4 letters are a abbreviation of the country. 2. The next 4 digits are a city number. 3. The next capital letter is the letter designation for that particular token. 4. If there is a small letter then this is a variety. Small vars specified by me and not descripted by Joseph have a digit on the end of the number. 5. Tokens with "PTMS" ar tokens from manfacturers of parking systems and used in different places. 6. If I used ZZ in a number then I miss some information of the token. | ObverseObverse
