Mina, Nevada, chip question

I picked this up at the convention around 1990 and either never knew its origin or, more likely, have forgotten it. Mina is a tiny town between Hawthorne and Tonopah. The only words visible are "avelers" - maybe the last letters of travelers? - B. Scott (it appears to be a middle initial and last name) - Yvo (I think that's correct; the printing is not clear. Maybe the first three letters of Yvonne? - and Mina, Nevada 246.

The back is blank.

Does anybody have a clue about what this chip might have been used for and where it might have been used? My guess is that it's an advertising chip of some sort, but that's just a guess.

Thanks.
