Comments
Repsol is a Spanish-based Gas Station franchise. They use some machines at their stations, car-wash machines are ones of the most popular among them. For many years, people used 100 Peseta coin for those machines. Since Euro coming, Repsol decided to ask Spanish Royal Mint to mint tokens of the same diameter, thickness, composition and weight in order to use them in replacement of the 100 Pesetas coins. The Royal mint of Spain minted a number of tokens with the same size as the old 100 pesetas and the famous architect and designer: Norman Foster, designed the Gas Station image on them.
