Starts with the Artifact

Scott O'Neil of the Philadelphia 76ers asked Tokens to craft gifts made from the floor of Hershey Sports Arena to honor Wilt Chamberlain's 100 point game in 1962. The 100th point went through with 46 seconds left on the clock and was the final bucket of the game before fans rushed the court. Harvey Pollack was the Philadelphia Warriors PR director who hand wrote the 100 point sign Wilt held. Later, he was the authenticator of this floor for the 76ers when Hershey Park transferred it to Tokens in 2012.
