Nevada Inlay Fractional of the Day

Another in a series of Horseshoe Club chips from downtown Vegas. This 25 center is 6th issue, N4272, released in the 1960s.

I love the horsehead mold on any chip, and it makes perfect sense to be included on one from the Horseshoe Club. Horseshoe pic and simple denom in the inlay is absent the Binion pic present on all other of the Horseshoe inlay fractionals produced after 1958, so I suspect it was a retro design honoring the maroon arodie with the same inlay from the early 50s. I'll post that one tomorrow.
