Sterling Nevada tokens for sale

I've decided to sell the duplicate $5 sterling silver Nevada tokens I have in my collection. Here are seven to start with. Both sides are shown.

Made by Franklin Mint in 1967 for all the major Nevada casinos (30+ different). There were few $5 slot machines in those days and it was likely they were intended for use on the table games. Size is about 1 3/4" in diameter and edges have the partial reeded edges that show a different pattern for each casino.

These are uncirculated, proof-like condition that were in the original FM cards until I put them into cardboard holders today. Each weighs 1.3 troy ounces and is .925 silver, so about 1.2 T.O. of actual silver in each. Nice silver investment as well as outstanding addition to your casino stuff collection. The tokens supplied to the casinos in 1967 had the same designs but were made of bonded silver-clad base material and were not marked Sterling as these are.

Yours for $25 each plus postage. Many of these are offered on ebay for 2-3 times this price. My offer is good for the next 5 days or until spot silver moves above $21 an ounce.
