When a European calls soccer "football", he isn't "wrong" either. Of course, if he buys tickets to an American football game, expecting to see soccer, he's going to be in for a big surprise.
And, if he puts a soccer ball on eBay and calls it a football, anyone looking for a "soccer ball" isn't likely to find the auction.

Of course, numismatists can call chips whatever they want. Nevertheless, calling them "tokens", in the context of our hobby, demonstrates either a decided lack of awareness or a stubborn adherence to pedantic literalism.
