Nevada Inlay Fractional of the Day

Today's chip is a 50 center from the Hilton in Las Vegas, 1st issue, N1859, released in 1971.

Well, Hilton couldn't stand back and let the International produce those purple $.50s just like the Flamingo. Time to move in on them, too! After the takeover, they put their own special touch on the chip shown yesterday -- basically just replacing the casino name and logo, keeping the color scheme and mold exactly the same. Still a nice chip, although no points for originality....
