I have a card that is both a cheque guaranty card and a "Check Card."  In fact,
it's also an ATM card.  I use it only in ATMs and as a check guarantee card,
but I could use it as a debit card as well, and that's what the credit union
calls it on their applications.  It says "Checking Card" on the front and has
the Visa logo and bird hologram.  On the back it says "Check Guarantee Card/
Guarantee $100.00" and has the Plus (ATM) logo.
