I am going through my chips, weeding out the duplicates and what I don't really have an interest in keeping. Some questions came up when I realized what I thought were duplicate chips really are not.

I have 3 Golden Nugget Vegas $1 chips. One of them does not have the registered trademark symbol under the logo in the middle. Is this correct or was it a mistake when the chip was made? I can't find any place on the web that shows a GN chip like this one.

Also, I have another GN chip, it does have the registered trademark symbol, but unlike all the GN chips I have seen, the inside is a gold or dark yellow color and not white like the other GN chips I have seen. Has anyone ever seen these or know anything about them?

Another $1 chip I have, 3 actually, are from a casino in Spokane Washington named The Pine Shed. I can find nothing on the web about this place, nothing anywhere in all my searches, including a search on the state of Washington Website.

I have a chip labeled Casino At Sea, blue ink, composite material, I think, but can't confirm, is from the Regency Cruise Lines ship that sailed from New York and Port Manatee. Can anyone confirm this?

After I track all this down, what is the best way to value my collection? I'm going through a divorce and I need to place a value on it.

Thanks in advance
