Apparently this chip was used in Reno, as well as Tahoe
Our one and only chip from the Nevada Lodge started life as a chip at the Chesterfield Club, an illegal joint (Detroit?) owned by Lincoln Fitzgerald. Apparently Fitzgerald took the CC chips with him when he relocated to Nevada. In 1964, when silver dollars started to disappear, the CC chips were used at the Nevada Lodge until $1 chips were ordered for the Lodge.
This card has both the Nevada Club and the Nevada Lodge names on it...
