GreenPeace Coins? Anybody know anything about them?

I have a set of Five GreenPeace coins. They are in a green holder the says greenpeace on the cover. Come with a little booklet about the animals featured on the coins. The coins them self are in execellent condition. About the size and weight on a silver dollar. Silver in color, I don't know if they are real silver or plated? They all have the GreenPeace symbol with the peace sign on one side. And the of side show a different animal or design on the other. A Bald Eagle, Harp Seals, Timber Wolves, Sperm Whales, and a Sisiutl. They say "GreenPeace 1979" on the top and on the bottom it says, "Currency Value One Dollar Expires April 30, 1979" I can't find anything about these. I have had them for years. I checked on ebay the see it anyone had tried to auction any off, and no one has in the last six months. I get nothing off of google. Anyone know where I can find info on these?

I will not be much help but they are actually medals. They fall into the category of local trade dollars. There are more Canada than here in the states but when a city or town has a special event say a 100th anniversary they produce trade coins that are good for a certain amount for a specific time. Greenpeace was big in the 1970-1980's for pulling stunts that got them in trouble with the powers to be. I am not surprised such an item exists. they would have used the money from sales to help their cause. I don't have their web site handy but google the token and medal society maybe they can help. I would say the medals are usually made of copper-nickel to look like silver. You can also google token and medal dealers , one of them may know. Hope this helps.
