for saleFond-du-Luth nominated TOTY, also DULUTH INFO.

Last Thursday I spent the day in Duluth, Minnesota, home of Fond-du-Luth Casino. This casino's 20th Anniversary $1 token has been nominated for Token of the Year, a prestigious award from the Casino Chip and Gaming Token Collectors Club. The token has been difficult for collectors to obtain, see this message:

I was lucky enough to meet the Manager at this casino that designed the token. He had saved several of these tokens and was kind enough to sell them to me. The tokens that I have are nice and bright uncirculated beauties. They have been handled a little bit, so they are not in "perfect" condition. The price for one token, including U.S.A. shipping is $3 for those paying by Mail and $3.41 for those paying by Paypal. Please contact me by EMAIL to order your token. I have only a small number of tokens available for sale, so there is a limit of one token per person.

$1 tokens are still in use at Fond-du-Luth Casino, however, most slot machines have recently become TITO. I believe this token was made primarily as a promotional item.

Would someone please tell me which issue (and page) of CASINO NEWS MAGAZINE this token appeared in? I subscribe to this magazine, but didn't see the token.

-------------------------Duluth, MN information-------------------------

Duluth, MN is really a wonderful city to visit. It is located on the shore of Lake Superior. I highly recommend that you think about spending a weekend, or better yet, a long weekend in Duluth. Some of the many things to see/do in Duluth include:

Fond-du-Luth Casino - located downtown, this is a very friendly casino. Blackjack is the only table game in Minnesota, and it is offered at Fond-du-Luth. I noticed that this casino has a great number of brand new slot machines. Unlike the other casinos in Minnesota, Fond-du-Luth is not located "in the middle of no where". Many attractions are within walking distance of this casino.

Fitgers Brewery Complex
Canal Park
North Shore Scenic Railroad & Museum
The Duluth Lakewalk (on the shore of Lake Superior)
Great Lakes Aquarium
Glensheen Mansion
Boating and fishing

A Google search will provide you with information regarding any of the above, and much more information about Duluth.
