Basic Features

These were distributed in boxes of Salada teas and Junket desserts. Junket is a milk-based dessert, also known as pudding. These coins are made of metal, in contrast to the earlier Salada-Junket issues which were made of plastic. Coins featuring American League players have a blue rim, while those with National League players are rimmed in red. The front side of the coin showcases a color photograph of the player, while the reverse side contains all the relevant details: coin number, player name, team, position, and a brief biography. Notably, the 62 plastic coin backs were identical.
