Today I reflect and look back on the 1st annual CC>CC convention that happened at the Aladdin Casino that was located in Las Vegas. This was the first Casino Chip & Gaming Tokens Collectors Club convention that happened in 1993. The CC>CC was founded by Archie Black in 1988 in response to the continuing evolution and popularity of chip collecting. Since 1993, the CC>CC/CCA has had an annual convention in Las Vegas where collectors are able to meet others, trade, buy and sell chips, tokens and any type of casino memorabilia that they have. Chips tend to be the most popular but you're able to find collectors for anything at this show. I've been able to go the back 2-3 years and it's been absolutely incredible. I've had so much fun, learned so much information and have been able to meet people across the world that I probably would've never met otherwise. This year will be the 30th anniversary of this 1st convention and I'm hoping that it's going to be an absolute blast. I'm looking forward to all of the fun things that happen during the show, who is going to show up, what seminars there are going to be and more. I'll of course be on the look for TRKs and other goodies as I usually am. Hope you enjoy!
