Besanger electric autodrome token. Victor Besanger, originally from Binche, was a showman from the 1930s onwards. He took part in all the major fairs in Belgium, Luxembourg and partly in France. His son succeeded him in the early 1960s. The family business still exists today under the name "Belgian Skooter Besanger".Victor Besanger struck a dozen different tokens, most of them in brass or aluminum.
