They used DM in Romania

Hi,

the casinos in Ramania used many different currencies over the last years.
Here are some chips and jetons in Lei (there own currency), DM and US$.
The chips in the first two rows were used at the Schilling Casino in Bukarest (closed 1998)
Caesar Casino was opened from 1999 - 2000.
Casino Tiberius was in Timisoara (closed 1999).
Stratosfer was also in Timisoara (closed 2001).
The metal chips were also used on the tables. They are no tokens for slot machines.
They are from the casino in Sinaia and pretty old.
The casino was opened from 1912 - 1947.

Many greetings from Germany,
