poker chip
Betting table currency
A poker chip is a small disc used as currency in poker and other gambling games, exchanged for money at the start of play and cashed out afterward.
Chips come in different colors representing different values.
Figuratively, poker chips suggest something used as leverage in negotiations: Health care has become a poker chip in budget talks.
