Commonly referred to as Heavy Metal, these bronze AA coins are the typical celebratory reminder of annual anniversaries in alcoholics anonymous. The use of AA medallions dates back to the days of Sister Ignatia handing out Sacred Heart medals to dried out drunks leaving St Thomas Hospital in Akron, OH. She would offer them these AA Chips as a reminder of their acceptance of God in their daily lives. However, before that, and perhaps the first historical instance of someone carrying a Personal AA Chip, was Clarence Snyder, who created his very own AA Coin out of a half dollar. He would drill a small hole in the AA Chip for each year of sobriety. He continued this tradition with the same AA Token until his death in 1984.
