Item History & Price
Check out my E-Bay Store for High Grade Vintage Coins and Pins! This 160-coin set is difficult to complete due to the factthat within every team grouping, the last ten coins are much tougher to find.The back of the coin is hard plastic, but also see-through. The coins can befound with sponsors Nalley's Potato Chips, Hunter's Potato Chips, Krun-CheePotato Chips, and Humpty Dumpty Potato Chips. Humpty Dumpty coins were printedin French and English, instead of just English. The coins can ...also be foundwithout sponsor names. There are no price differences between the variations.Eight of the nine CFL teams are represented. The coins measure approximately 13/8" in diameter. In 1963, the Canadian Football League contracted to haveplastic player coins inserted in brand name potato chip bags including thoseproduced by Nalley's, Hunter's, Krun-Chee, and Humpty Dumpty (printed in Frenchand English. In total, there were eight teams represented with 20 coins perteam: Toronto Argonauts (1-20), Ottawa Roughriders (21-40), Hamilton Tiger Cats(41-60), Montreal Alouettes (61-80), Winnipeg Blue Bomber (81-100), EdmontonEskimos (101-120), Calgary Stampeders (121-140), and British Columbia Lions(141-160). While the first 10 coins of each consecutively numbered teamwere relatively available, the final 10 coins were much more difficult to find.This short printing of half the set (80 coins), coupled with the fact that notevery coin was available with each potato chip brand, make this the mostchallenging CFL set to complete from the 1960s. The back of the coin is hard plastic, but also see-through.Most coins have an unusual cloudy look on the back caused by the adhesive usedto adhere the paper picture to the plastic coin. Collectors were offered a teamdisplay holder via mail-in promotion. The holder allowed collectors to displaytheir favorite team players on the walls of their home. The set includes 34 Hall of Fame members composing almost20% of the total number of players enshrined in the CFL Hall of Fame.
