I found these tickets last night and was wondering if anyone could identify what year they are? Also, are they worth anything?

If the admission has not been applied and you are willing to give up the collector value they can be used for admission.

I have an '89 MK ticket that still has a space to be stamped, always fancied taking it with me just to see the look on the face of the CM as I try to gain entry ;) I also have a Disney Dollar from '88. I am actually going to use it when I go back....

You might want to rethink using your Disney Dollar.
Collectors would be willing to pay you more then it is actually worth spending at the Park.
:)

If you do bring back older tickets, you will be required to visit Guest Relations to exchange it for currant entry media. In most cases, they will let you keep the original old ticket, but stamp it with a giant black 'VOID'.

I have a couple of WorldPassport tickets for MK/EC i bought in 1983 with two days left between them.
I cannot bring myself to use them as it is just neat to still have them valid.
Call me a geek...fine...

I also have a 1989 Park Hopper, back when Disney/MGM Studios was new that has a day left on it.
That one i might just use up someday....maybe...

I was going to let my daughter spend it as we will be there with my dad, and he bought me a few Disney dollars when I was her age and we were there, this is the last one left. I thought it would be cool if my daughter spent it with my dad. After all, he would have had no idea that I would have kept one that he bought me, and that one day he would be there with his granddaughter spending it in the very place it came from. That's worth more than anything a collector could pay :)
And yes, I do look at the ticket a lot and think how cool it is, to have an unexpired ticket. I also have one from Disneyland. My son wears the flip flops I bought on the same trip, my other son has my Mickey Mouse I bought in 1988, my daughter sleeps with my duchess and Figaro I bought in 88 too. Can't work out whether I'm a hoarder or extremely sentimental! Will post pics and a separate thread at some point on nostalgia......

Great story regarding how you want to use that Disney Dollar.
Quite nice....and your Dad will likely really be delighted.
Have a great time !

Interesting that the price-point of the ticket puts it as late 1984/early 1985, but I didn't think the parks had any mag-stripe ticket media until the mid-90's. This is the first time I've seen this type of ticket.
