Hello all!

I've had this one for a few years now. Did some net searches on it, and came up empty. Does anyone know anything about this one? Reason I think it's a token (maybe gaming) is the "R" (registered). Other than that I'm clueless. I'd like to identify and put on the Token Database. Thanks my peeps!!

I think it's a French token, rather than North American: the use of "c" rather than "ยข", the 20 cent denomination being common in France but not America, and "A CONSR" likely being an abbreviation for something like a consommer, "to use".
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Very French, there are quite a few consommer tokens featuring a frog. Mostly anonymous, but when I can get to my records tomorrow it's possible there may be a match.
