    - 1969 "Antique Car Coin" aluminum token / Sunoco Company
    - Minted by the Franklin Mint for the Sun Oil Co. / Series 2
    - "1916 Chevrolet 490" /26mm in diameter / uncirculated condition
    - In 1969-70, Sunoco would give out these "Antique Car" tokens upon purchases made at their gas stations. - Also provided was a cardboard game board with cut-outs so these could be pressed into the corresponding slots.
    *** The Chevrolet Series 490 (or Four-Ninety) is a Brass Era American automobile made from 1915 to 1922. - It got it's 490 name from the $490 price at the 1915 introduction.
    All 490's were only offered with the Overhead Valve 171-cubic-inch (2.8 L) four cylinder engine, producing 26 hp (19 kW). - By the next year, over 70,000 were produced and the price had already risen to the $550-$750 range. Electric horns were standard, and by 1921, standard equipment included a speedometer and ammeter, dome lights (closed-body cars only), and headlight dimmers.
