These check pieces were used to pay out jackpot payments from the club poker machines. They could be used to purchase cigarettes or liquor as well as a few grocery items. They were not used in the actual machines.
This 6 piece is listed in Harper as NH3. The others in the series are a 3D, another 6D variety (10% offset), 1/-, and 2/6 all the same size.
