10/15/21, made the drive to the visitor's center but they no longer have the store that used to sell these tokens, I went there as I was driving home so I didn't have time to find out more info, but the guy that was working there said these tokens may be down in Crissy Field, but I have no idea where YET, just wanted to warn anyone that collects these to not make the drive unless you're just wanting to see the scenery.
