I thought I had gotten all the designs from both machines, but upon closer inspection, I ended up with two Sinkhole designs from Token Machine 1. It was probably due to operator error, not machine error. I have submitted photos both token machines, and scans of the tokens I received. LJM

10.10.2025 - There are now TWO token machines, each with 4 different designs. Tokens are $5 each or all 4 designs for $15,
