I have just listed on ebay an orange, hce h-mold $1 Americana Casino chip from Puerto Rico. It is in very nice condition. I would say the high end of Average. Cross hatching shows a bit of wear near the edges and there is a small rounding on the edge (small), though they stand on edge readily. On one side there is a bit of wear on the denomination though it is VERY hard to see with the naked eye. It shows up on the scan, though. Here are scans of both sides:

I have been informed it's a $75-$100 chip. I guess I will see.

I also have a non-denominational token for sale on ebay from the Crystal and Seaport casinos in Aruba in conjunction with the L.G. Smith Steah & Chop House, a steakhouse in the same hotel as the Crystal Casino. They were not for sale, nor were they for use in slot machines. Instead, you could qualify for one by buying certain things at the steakhouse or by using a fair amount of player's points at the casinos. There were four in the set. I found it quite hard to get them, and don't know of anyone else in the collecting work who has any (doesn't mean they don't, though). In any case, it's a beautiful token, with a great picture of the California Lighthouse on Aruba and its' made of a silver metal It's in new condition and has been in an air-tite since I got it. Here is a scan of both sides.

They were available a year or two ago. I don't know if they are still available, but I doubt it.

Both are 5-day auctions. Please see the link:
