Description

This antique casino token is presented in the photo in an elaborately decorated display case, showing the main side of the coin. It is a circular, metallic-looking token, silver-gray in color, with a slightly satiny surface and traces of wear typical of use in a gaming room. The center of the token features the clearly legible value "20 CENTS" in relief, surrounded by a double circle.

Around the edge, the inscription "CASINO DE CASSIS" is clearly visible, accompanied by the repeated mention "20 CENTS" and the letter "K" on the right side. The raised lettering and typography evoke the casino token productions of the 20th century, with a sober, functional style resistant to wear.

The object has a perfectly round shape, without frills or additional ornaments, true to the standards of professional tokens used in gaming establishments. The visible edge shows a smooth finish, without fluting or particular decoration. The surface shows some marks and micro-scratches, indicating regular handling, but without major defects visible on this side.

The visible side shows no additional patterns or logos, apart from the inscriptions and the face value. The background of the token has a slightly granular texture, typical of the metal alloys used for this type of object. The natural patina and slight alteration of the color accentuate the vintage character of this piece.

The token is showcased by its presentation in a wooden box adorned with golden details, suggesting decorative use or careful preservation, but only the token is offered for sale. The photograph highlights the quality of the strike and the legibility of the inscriptions, two essential criteria for lovers of authentic French casino tokens.

Condition
