Shell's Presidential Coin Game była grą promocyjną wydaną przez Shell Oil w 1992 roku. Była to gra z natychmiastową wygraną, a główną nagrodą była sztabka złota o wartości 50 000 USD! Elementy gry były kolekcjonerskie i można było kupić towary związane z grą.

Gra trwała 45 dni, od 22.05.1992 do 5.07.1992. W tym czasie rozprowadzono 45 milionów elementów gry. Przy każdej wizycie na stacji benzynowej Shell biorącej udział w grze, gracze otrzymywali foliowy pakiet. W paczce znajdował się albo medal prezydencki wybity z mosiądzu, albo żeton INSTANT WINNER wybity z niklu i srebra. Było sześć różnych nagród ze złota i srebra, które można było wygrać, otrzymując jeden z żetonów natychmiastowego zwycięzcy.

The game ran for 45 days, from 5/22/92 to 7/5/92. During that time 45 million game pieces were distributed. With each visit to a participating Shell gas station, players received a foil packet. In the packet was either a presidential medal struck in brass, or an INSTANT WINNER token struck in nickel-silver. There were six different prizes of gold and silver which were won by receiving one of the instant winner tokens.
