No, this site is not abandoned.  It just gets pushed to the bottom of the pile when things get busy.  I’m not going to make any promises about future updates, but I will tell you that I just spent about 4 hours adding more than 100 known Sambo’s locations.  Check the pages on Sambo’s in California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.

OSU Sambo's Wooden Nickel

Oregon State University is located in Corvalis, OR, but I’m not sure where these wooden nickels were actually distributed since there is no specific location mentioned on the coin itself.

Still, one of my favorites.  The specialized or custom logo imprints not only make the wooden nickels more interesting, but more valuable as well.

South Lake Tahoe spans the border of California and Nevada, and I’m not sure which state had a Sambo’s (or if both did).  If you know the location of the South Lake Tahoe Sambo’s, please leave a comment below with details.
