Vintage metal casino token CGD 2F Cannes Dieppe authentic old coin

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This antique casino token features a classic round shape, with a metallic visual finish typical of tokens used in 20th-century gaming establishments. The visible side features the embossed monogram "CGD", above the value "2F", as well as a detailed circular inscription: "CANNES-PINS DIEPPE SAN-MANDÉ-LYON". All graphic and typographic elements are clear, with a sharp relief that attests to careful manufacturing, probably for regular use in a gaming room.

The token's surface reveals a grayish patina, characteristic of circulated objects, and testifies to its authenticity and age. The slightly worn edges confirm frequent handling, typical of historical casino tokens. No additional decoration or enamel is visible on this side, which highlights the sobriety of the design and the legibility of essential information for table use.

The embossed lettering, as well as the face value "2F", remains clearly legible. The peripheral inscription mentions several French cities, suggesting circulation in different establishments or operation by the same company operating in several locations. The general visual aspect evokes productions from the 1950s to the 1970s, although only the observation of the visible side allows for stylistic near-certainty.

The token is presented in the photo in an antique case, which is not explicitly included in the offer, but highlights the piece through the contrast of materials and colors. No other markings, serial numbers, or details are visible on the presented side.

This token is for anyone looking for an authentic piece that was used in French casinos, with a sober visual and a patina testifying to its history. It constitutes a material testament to the world of gambling and the atmosphere of casinos of the last century.
