Purpose: These tokens were historically used to operate pay-toilets, granting access to public restrooms, primarily manufactured and leased by the Nik-O-Lok Company.
Company Origin: The Nik-O-Lok Company was founded in 1910 in Indianapolis, Indiana, by Charles Van Cleave, and is known for manufacturing and leasing coin and token-operated locks for public restrooms.
Material: The token shown in the image, and many like it, are typically made of brass.
Collectibility: Vintage restroom tokens like the Nik-O-Lok are collected as "exonumia," a field of numismatics that deals with coin-like objects other than legal tender currency.
Company Legacy: The Nik-O-Lok Company, originating in Indianapolis, still exists today as a division of Standard Change-Makers, a family-owned business also based in Indianapolis.
