These chips are from 1937.

So, some denomination chips had dollar signs some didn’t.

I’m just asking what evidence was found to declare the el Cortez was: 1 - a Vegas chip; and, 2 - a denomination chip. I’m not arguing one way or another.

I’m just thinking that if I had found that chip today and declared it a Las Vegas El Cortez $5 chip, I would have been laughed at without solid proof.
