Supposedly, the original game has seven, and the expansion provided eight replacements, for a total of fifteen.
When it comes to my copy, there are 7 city tokens in the base game with gray backs. The expansion comes with 8 alternate city tokens with red backs. They are NO replacement! They are there for a variant mentioned in the rulebook where you play with those instead of the 7 cities from the basegame. However, even with the expansion, you usually still play with the basegame cities. Thats also the reason why they have different colored backs.
When it comes to the replacement: I heard something about a misprint, but the others will help you here :)
