Player mats
Player mats (playmats or mats for short) are pieces of cardboard used by certain cards to set aside resources for future use. Island sets aside cards on a mat until the end of the game. Pirate Ship and Trade Route set aside Tokens on a mat to keep track of 
they generate when played. Native Village sets cards aside to be drawn later. Monument, Goons and Bishop all set aside VP tokens to be scored at the end of the game. The Tavern mat is a place to keep your Reserve cards until you call them.
Tokens
A token is a metal piece used in Dominion. They are used by a number of cards to keep track of numbers. Embargo has its own set of tokens to mark Embargoed cards. Trade Route and Pirate Ship share the same design of token, used to keep track of they generate when played. Monument, Goons and Bishop all refer to VP tokens, which grant points at the end of the game to whoever has them.
Victory tokens
Victory tokens (or VP tokens, denoted by the symbol 
) is a feature of the Prosperity set and an example of alt-VP. These are chips that players may earn by playing certain cards, namely Monument, Bishop, and Goons. With Monument, the player gains one victory token per time the card is played. Bishop is the same way with the added bonus of gaining the number of victory tokens equal to half the trashed card's cost in , rounded down. Goons gives the player one victory token per card bought that turn.
Coin tokens
Coin tokens are a feature of the Guilds set. These tokens can be taken by playing certain cards.
- With Candlestick Maker and Baker the player takes one Coin token per time the card is played;
- With Plaza the player may discard one treasure card to taken a Coin token;
- With Merchant Guild the player takes one Coin token per bought card for every Merchant Guild in play;
- With Butcher the player takes two Coin tokens per play. The player can also spend Coin tokens to gain a more expensive card.
Tokens of the same design are used for Pirate Ship and Trade Route, but should not be mixed up.
Adventures tokens
Adventures comes with 10 different tokens, a set in each of 6 player colors.They are currently made of cardboard, in contrast to the other tokens, which are made of metal.
Some provide a vanilla bonus for Action card Supply piles they're on, others act as penalties, and the rest have a variety of effects. They are used by several different cards and Events.
