I just got these neat tokens. Two types. Type I (I only have 6 of them) has the governor's signature on one side, the state seal on the reverse. Type II (I have about 30 of those) has Boulder Dam-"36th State" on one side, and the state seal on the reverse. The tokens are of a nice weight and size, though a little less than a slot token. They are 1-5/16" diameter.
Both tokens for $11.50 postpaid (add $1.30 more if you want insurance). One token (Type II) for $4.00 postpaid (add $1.30 if you want insurance).
I bought just 40 of them from a dealer who had more -- this was his pitch:
VERY RARE, HARD TO FIND SET OF 150 BRASS POKER CHIPS/ COINS. WHAT MAKES THESE POKER CHIPS SO SPECIAL IS I BOUGHT THEM OVER 15 YEARS AGO IN AN ESTATE SALE AND HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER SET LIKE THEM, 25 ARE STAMPED ON ONE SIDE WITH THE GREAT SEAL OF NEVADA AND THE OTHER SIDE IS SIGNED BY GOVENOR MIKE O'CALLAGHAN, GOVERNOR OF NEVADA FROM 1970 TO 1978. THE OTHER 125 HAVE THE GREAT SEAL ON ONE SIDE AND THE OTHER SIDE HAS THE 36TH STATE MARKINGS,
Robert
