The Holiday in Reno Bicentennial Medals

I finally completed my set of 4 medals from the Holiday in Reno in 1976. They were struck in bronze for the 5, silver for the 25 and gold for the 100. For some reason, they struck both coin-aligned and medal-aligned versions of the 5. Manufacturer was Medallic Arts in Danbury, CT. The mintage seem like strange numbers, but these are edge marked as 1/132 or 1113/1, so I'm taking that as a mintage quantity, not a serial number.

These have denominations with dollar signs, but I don't believe they were playable. All I have seen were UNC.

The 5 and 25 tokens have O'Neal catalog numbers, but I don't see the 100 listed.

Not for sale... just posted for your amusement.
