Yes its true. I want to trade My $5 Fiesta Charter Member Chip (200 minted) for a Silver Smith Asian 2000-Wendover (250 minted). I will consider similar items.
Of the 200 minted--168 went to employees and will probably end up in a dresser drawer. The other 32 were cashed in for the $5 and were sold to collectors (limit 1). My chip comes complete with engraved brass plaque and velvet case.
