Abstract
A composite gaming chip which includes a strong frame made of a brass ring with axial protrusions and a central aperature with notches. A display or electronic transponder is situated between two clear polycarbonate disks each having a recessed face surrounded by a rim. Tabs radially extending from each disk engage the notches in the brass ring. The assembly is inserted into the cavity of a plastic injection mold where it is bonded together by an injected thermoplastic. The gaming chip can be ground flat without scratching the clear recessed face of either disk.
