Collecting coins and discs is enjoyable, and the 1980s offered a wide variety of sets.The 1984 Super Star Sports Coins there were three regional 16-coin releases, with a player from every MLB franchise. The first six player coins are numbered in Roman numerals in all three sets. The Slurpee cups had the coins fastened to the bottom.
The first 12-coin set of 7-Eleven Coins (officially called Slurpee Discs) was released in 1983 as a promotional item. There were eight distinct sets over the years. 1984 was the second set.
Each location has the same first six coins; the final eight (nine to sixteen) were presumably chosen to highlight players from that region. Using lenticular technology, the coin's front produces printed images that can alter in appearance depending on the angle from which they are seen. One picture shows an action scene, while the other is a player bust. The player's name appears at the bottom, with their team name above and their uniform number on each side. The player's career record and the Coins are numbered on the back, which is different from the uniform number which is on the front of the coin.
