Two denominations, one unresolved identity

The ETD examples are marked $1 and $100. Their common initials connect them as a comparison group, but the source and intended use are not confirmed. A monetary marking alone does not establish casino issuance.

Read the pieces before naming the owner

Comparing lettering, placement, color, and the two faces can reveal similarities between examples. Those observations help describe the material accurately. They cannot supply a missing owner or date without supporting documentation.

The historical limit

The record does not yet support a property history for ETD. An original order, packaging, or documented chain of ownership would be more useful than choosing a casino whose initials happen to match.

Evidence: the collection photographs shown here and the existing object description. Unconfirmed identifications are kept separate from visible markings.
