Andy; I purchased similar chips (no $100) several years ago from the Gamblers Book Store in Las Vegas who claimed at the time these chips were from Vegas. Since then there has been much doubt cast upon them as being Vegas chips. The strange thing about these chips is every one of them I have ever seen has these same old cigarette burns on them. It almost looks intentional to give them an "aged" look. What does Jimbo have to say about them?
