I started collecting chips from the United States thirty years ago. In the time when there was still no internet, and purchases were made through lists that salespeople issued on paper and through advertisements in the Club magazine. Always time-consuming process. Sometimes the order letter was sent and when it arrived some of the orders could no longer be satisfied. OLD times.

The first 2 USA chips I bought.
My goal was to have at least one chip from each casino (Land Based, Cruise chip, Day cruise., Indian, racino - no illegals).
From some casinos, I acquired more than one chip.
I completed almost every state - Well, Nevada is another story (I still have a lot to progress here)
Later on in Colorado, I liked the graphic aspect of the chips and started collecting all the chips worth up to $5. Very few are missing me
I have been updating the record of my collection chips. Below are the chips I have from Minnesota. I think I just need a CASINO BIG BUCKS chip.
