Contrary to some descriptions, the jeton seen below
is not ivory, but a Celluloid-type plastic. The
die-cut metal inlay is not silver. The obverse
monogram depicts two interlaced, back-to-back letter
C's (not an O), and the reverse is a numeral 5
within
a floral design. Though the letters "CC" are
frequently seen on some European jetons (especially
from France), this exact monogram is unknown.
I've had these jetons since the early-90s.
