These are plastic translucent jetons from some of the Canadian casinos. Each has a contrasting "lunette" in the center; the 25 has three lunettes.
They are gift-tokens (jeton-cadeau in french) that can be purchased and presented to someone. A couple of mine came in velvet draw-string bags. As I understand it, they cannot be played, but must be exchanged at the tables for live chips. To my knowledge, these were only used at Casino de Hull, Casino de Montreal, and Casino de Charlevoix.
I'd like to trade these for something that fits my collection, like a baccarat chip, or a 20 from just about anywhere, or a newer $2.50 or two that I don't have. I'd particularly like one of the gift tokens like these that are marked $10 or $25 from Casino Charlevoux, also in Canada.
I'd sell these for $5 over face each, delivered.
