Casino chips and memerobilia

[richm]

I collect obsolete casino chips and memerobilia, mostly from "El Rancho Vegas" This casino mysteriously burned down in 1960 and to this day the lot is still vacant (wouldn't mind metal detecting that lot) This was the first casino on the "Vegas Strip". Anyone else out there collect casino chips?? Rich.

Nothing from the El Rancho but I have a stash of a 100 or so chips I accumulated from visits to Vegas, Atlantic City, and several cruise ships. I checked this forum tonight to see if they had any value but it doesn't look like there is much of an interest. Most of my chips are from the 90's, blackjack tables, and in average condition.

I do have a $5 slot token from the Queen Elizabeth 2, a few uncirculated collectors from the grand opening of the Hard Rock Hotel, and chips from a few casinos that are no longer operating.

I found a 1965 slot machine token from the Dunes hotel in a park in Chicago.
