Did you notice on the "wet" token that one side had 10 Alpha-Bravo-Charlie Flags and only 9 flags on the reverse side. I guess the designer used his fingers to count and forgot one. I have several early wet tokens, but I don't recognize this one. From the class ship displayed, I would guess it's from an early Carnival vessel, looks like the MS Tropicale -- Carnival's third ship -- before they started using the Whale Tales around their smokestacks. We sailed on the Tropicale three times out of New Orleans and last saw her wearing new colors of sister cruise line Costa in Rome. She has since been sold.
