Short story: Dockside gambling; 1885-1942

Casino du Palais de la Jetée-Promenade de Nice
(Long name for a casino grin)

Casino opened in 1885 and closed in 1942.

In the link below you can see where the casino
sits at the end of the pier off the Promenade
des Anglais.

In 1970, Madam LEWY of Nice, France (some of us
still buy from her), located the
only jeton known from the casino; a 5f piece.
Nothing else from the casino has been found,
since.
