Pianta Tokens are blue coins with Don Pianta's face imprinted on them in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They're only good at the Pianta Parlor where Mario can win them from the slot machines. Mario can trade them for items and badges from Lahla the Boo working at the desk. The change machine trades three coins for one token, which is generally a bad deal since Mario can get some of the tokens for free if he is good at the mini-games.
