My statement makes no sense to you because you wish not to accept the fact that a jeton is a token and a token is a jeton.

Why do you think that. I do not believe that one can't say that a chip is token or a jeton is a token.

I agree, but only when I use the term token in a generic sense.

When speaking with chip collectors and casino token collectors I understand the words have more specific meanings within the field and I use the terms as they are understood within the field. I didn't critcize the auction poster, because I understood that he wasn't familiar with the terminology it wasn't an attempt to be dishonest.
