"During the 1970's Mr. Jean Dominique Fratoni (JDF), was a powerful figure on the Cote d'Azur. At one time he controlled casinos in Sainte-Maxime, Saint-Raphael, Juan-les-Pins, Menton and in Nice itself, where he began by restoring to prominence the Casino Club.The Casino Ruhl in Nice was acquired by Mr Fratoni in 1974. He was nicknamed the « Napoléon des jeux » and the « l'empereur des jeux » . This jeton with the initials of Fratoni (JDF) was used in the Casino Saint Raphael.The number 83 in the jeton is the department code for Var, the department in Provence where Saint Raphael is situated. Probably used in the period 1975/1980."
