24 Hour AA Tokens

The AA 24 Hour Token

The Alcoholics Anonymous  24 Hour Chip stands as a silent reminder of the beginning of a journey. Designated as the humble memento with which a newly sober member of the fellow ship of AA is to mark the beginning of their sober life. Often called a "surrender chip", the 24 hour token comes in a variety of styles. Perhaps the most familiar of these is pictured here, an aluminum coin approximately 1 inch in diameter. Also common in some AA groups is a white poker chip or desire chip. These white poker chips sometimes feature the initials AA stamped in the center and may also feature the group's name on the reverse side of the chip.

24 Hour Tokens, which are sometimes called start-over tokens, are intended to signify a moment which starts a new way of life for the recipient. When a newly sober member of Alcoholics Anonymous is given a 24 hour chip the are being welcomed into recovery. At The Token Shop, it is our belief that every new member should get one of these coins, that is why we built our business on providing the lowest possible price on 24 hour tokens.
