I was very happy to get this No Cash Value dollar from The Mint at auction last week. I don't think I had ever seen it before. It could be argued that it's not an NCV, as it says it can be redeemed. Neverless, that's the collection catgegory I'm putting mine in.
I also show the two California dovetail $5 chips that are almost the same colors as the Las Vegas chip.
Finally, the other dovetail from The Mint, the old $2.50 which I've had for a while.
Not done though, as I still need the matching reversed-color tails for both the NCV and the $2.50. Anyone have a lead on where I might find them?
The Mint seemed to really like pie chips and dovetails and released a lot of different ones. I wonder why most of them are so hard for collectors to find.
