Missouri sales tax 5 Receipt 5

The coins called mills originally made of zink during the second world war this metal became scarce so the last ones minted were plastic, they came in denominations of 1, 5 and 10 , if the sales tax was 1 % then you needed 10 mills for a dollar. and one mill for each 10 cents over that, when they were abolished the state did offer to buy them back at face value, but there was a time limit to cash them in The reverse of the large token says "This receipt shows that you are helping to pay for old age pensions, support of public schools, care of poor, insane, and tubercular patiients, in-State hospitals and relief of need, unemployed in the State of Missouri."
