Torre Latinoamericana

21mm, brass

About this token:

• Used to operate a telescope on the top of a building by that name in Mexico City. Rulau DF 306, "very common."
• There was a lot on eBay recently that included a half-dozen or so different tokens similar to this one, but made of different materials and with slightly different designs.
• I have found several web pages that have some information about this building:
  • stats, picture (English)
  • picture, info (Spanish)
  • picture, (Spanish)
  • tower after earthquake
