Abstract: A bingo chip and method of manufacturing the same comprising a disk of see-through material having a slot formed therein, the slot being shaped to accept a structure of magnetic material. The structure of magnetic material being positioned within the slot and secured thereto. The transparent disk can have a concentric slot located on its outer periphery for the purpose of receiving a split ring of magnetic material. Alternatively, the disk can be provided with a ledge on which a ring of magnetic material is situated. After placing the ring on the ledge, a lip of overlying material on the disk is deformed over the top of the ring so as to permanently position it in place.
