I would like to point out some facts about my book for any who may not have this reference tool in their library already.
My Official US Casino Chip Price Guide, 2nd edition. By James Campiglia & Steve Wells.
This book is not just about Las Vegas.
We list all the chips for Lake Tahoe & Reno in separate sections. And then there's the near 80 different small towns listed alphabetically. Then you go to all 3 Colorado towns then on to Deadwood, South Dakota. All Riverboat states are then listed. After that, last but not least, is Atlantic City.
And I need to point out due to demand we did list for this year all the Las Vegas commemorative chips & the other Nevada in one easy to use section. Also fully indexed this time around.
And need I mention prices, you get 3! One for each condition whether your chip is just good, Very fine, or CS (near mint or uncirculated or as we now call it Chip State, kind of like Mint State for coins). Prices fully researched & updated for this 2nd edition.
We have opening & closing dates, and casino histories. And because many asked for it more pictures of the casino's themselves. Mostly old picture's of the way it used to be in Vegas & elsewhere.
Order of issue is the way I always collected my chips & this is how I laid it out under each casino. Some casino's had over 20 issues!
We all like to know the approximate rarity of anything we collect don't we? We cover that too. We tried to make the most complete most valuable reference tool possible.
And the most important aspect is you get true full color digitally taken pictures of over 1,600 chips in this 396 page book.
If this sounds like an ad, it is! Everyone needs to learn all they can about chips & having all books is the best way.
My Official US Casino Chip Price Guide, The Chip Rack & the many great books available about casino's in your area are all a must have. If you collect say the old illegal's or Riverboats or just Atlantic City there are books on those specific topics. Our hobby really has a lot of great book writer's!
I have a some copies available. $32 postage included. Email me soon as running out & almost need to order more copies that I buy directly from my publisher. Or check you local book store as all the big stores can order this book. We have sold books in many Foreign countries now too. Sales have been great. I am waiting to hear when the publisher wants me to start on a 3rd edition. This will take a year before anything would be out so get your 2nd edition & start learning more now.
