yeah...I wasn't sure about the penquin...  which ended up being my last choice.  FWIW...

The current Monopoly tokens list for current-edition games is:

  1. Dog
  2. Cat
  3. Battleship
  4. Penguin
  5. Rubber Ducky
  6. Top Hat
  7. Race Car
  8. Thimble

the six original Monopoly pieces in 1935:

  • Battleship
  • Boot
  • Cannon
  • Thimble
  • Top Hat
  • Iron
I guess cannons are bad(?)... leather is bad...  and what's an iron?





Our version (from the mid 60s) had the race car instead of the battleship.

Aye.  I haven't played Monopoly in years - too much work.

Apparently the thimble is no longer in new sets - I think it was replaced by a T-Rex.

If it's the two I'm thinking of: one is long gone, the other is apparently very new. The latter I just guessed because the letters were there and I checked on it afterwards.
