Pictures of my Orbit Inn chip collection

I'm glad to hear that it is a real chip. I have one in mint condition too, which I bought from Bill Borland in 1989.........I started collecting chips in 1980 when I visited Las Vegas on junkets. One day in 1980 I decided to visit every casino in Las Vegas that had a crap table. I placed a few bets at each place and took the lowest denomination chip (Silly, cheap me. Now I wish I took $5 inlay chips.). Some places, like Caesar's Palace, did not have $1.00 clay chips. They used $1 slot tokens at the crap tables, so I took the token for my collection. From the Orbit Inn, I took a 25 cents chip. In those days, I could house my entire collection in one 100-chip rack..........I see that in 1989, when I probably bought the $100 chip from Bill, I also bought a 10 cent Orbit Inn chip, pictured below. On the revese it says "Orbit Inn.".
