Up today is the 2nd Issue $20 from the Las Vegas Hilton:
As I stated in a previous post, the Las Vegas Hilton is the only casino (other than the Aladdin) that I own one of every $20 issued (for those casinos issuing 3 or more $20s-- otherwise the number goes way up). In fact, at 5 $20s issued, the Hilton might only be surpassed by the Sands (6) and Harold's Club in Reno (7) in the number of different $20s issued by the same casino (as of last year, Caesars tied it at 5). In any case I hope you like it, since the Hilton is coming your way for the next 4 days as well.
I have always liked the Hilton-- either because of the Star Trek Experience (R.I.P.), or maybe because it was featured prominently in a James Bond movie (although not a great Bond movie, and I think that was back in its "International" days)-- in any case, it is a point of confluence between two of my other universes of interest. If I could relate it to pirates somehow, then my life would be complete . Plus, they have issued multiple $20s, most of which can still be obtained for around face value-- so what's not to love?
Thanks for looking.
