The gaming token is fabricated as a flat plastic body (10) housing an electronic identification device (15). The token body (10-12) is a solid plastic plate with a hole formed within its edges to accept the electronic identification chip. The upper and lower surface of the token body are then covered with a laminate (19,21) which is fixed by fusion or adhesion. The electronic identification chip has a memory carrying data on the token identifier and value, and a communication circuit. An antenna runs inside the periphery of the token, and provides inductive coupling to power the electronic circuit so it can transmit the data it holds to a reader. <IMAGE> |
