Casino du Cercle de Royat

Still no way of knowing which casino the CC monogram belongs to, especially since everything we read states that Casino Chalet was completed in 1874, which is prior to the 1880's... The 'CI' is a mystery and, I believe if some form of documentation is found with perhaps some monograms attached it might solve the puzzle... or, sometimes metallic jetons from casinos carry both the monogram and casino name... but where and why the 'CI' is unknown....except if it was the monogram of the company who was actually responsible for the running of the game which might have been completely different than the operation of the entire casino where the entertainment, dining and ballroom were and the chips were their property. Also, whatever the relation between CC and CI was; it sure appears to have been strong since when the MOP was made through and up to the 5F manufacture... and, it also appears that neither of the two chips were known prior to December 2020, and the MOP in March 2021. Also, I see the 5F being offered again and I am pretty sure my MOP example.is not the only piece which, leads me to believe there was a recent find... thus the purpose of my broadcasting in hoping someone is willing to share whatever they know...
