- representative or article of value
-
An unusual and rather inept expression.
As used in a statute prohibiting any slot machine or mechanical device, as the result of the operation of which any merchandise or money is won or lost, this phrase refers to a material or tangible thing of value and does not include free games automatically won on a pinball machine so as to render such a machine subject to seizure and destruction as a gambling device. Gayer v Whelan, 59 Cal App 2d 255, 138 P2d 763.
