A casino token is a small disc or token used in casinos as a form of currency. It is usually made of metal, plastic, or clay and is used to represent money in the casino. Casino tokens are also known as gaming chips, checks, or tokens. They are used in table games such as poker, blackjack, and roulette. Casino tokens are used instead of cash because they are easier to keep track of and can be exchanged for cash at the end of the game.
