My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.

when you mention that, we do have alot of Japanese tour buses come through here and stop at a grocery store (halfway between DC and Niagra Falls). It's the same size as a US quarter. Maybe I should start asking them for their foreign change? Thanks.

I see Japanese tokens like this a lot. They are basically arcade or gambling tokens from what I understand as aloneibreak already pointed out (and maybe carwash too, if they have those in Japan). They are almost always die-cast alloy, so they don't stick to a magnet but they aren't very valuable as metal.
