Comment

This token was punching with the shape of the Cordoba shield.
At the request of the drivers' union, to avoid assaults, since April 18, 1988 the use of tokens was extended to all users. They were made of white metal, light alloy, of two categories: one section, valid for day trips on urban lines, and two sections, for ring lines and night trips, from 0 to 6 hours, with a more expensive fare. The tokens (popularly called tokens) are delivered directly to the driver, in exchange for the ticket.
