Dick,

Very interesting, I doubt if the Lucky Horseshoe you got is from The Achille Lauro, I could be wrong.

The Achille Lauro Casino, from the Lauro Lines is an Italian cruise ship - if you go back in time to the time it was in the headlines of every USA newspaper during the hijacking, nice reading in recent history.

Are you aware if there is a casino in UK or any British terretories who operated a casino named Lucky Horseshoe? What info did you find out at the time you bought it. Yes I saw this kind of chip before. I never related them to The Achille Lauro - the design is identical and the color also.

I am not talking about fantasy, manufacture sample or any thing but I am very curious - exact same chip only the name and denominations are different.

Back to the drawing board for me I guess - this time on your chip.
