The Copa of Gulfport, Mississippi opened in 1993 and closed in 2005, when Hurricane Katrina demolished it. This chip was issued in 1998, and at that time, the Copa was a cruise ship docked in Gulfport. Later, the casino was built on land and the old ship was sold for scrap to a dealer in Africa. It was being towed when it sank off the coast of the Dominican Republic. Far as I know, it's there now, but heres's a limited edition $5 chip from the ill-fated Copa. $10 shipped. E-mail me if interested.
