Are you coming to Munding show? I can print my notes for your copy - the story goes like this - when the owner of the proposed Penthouse Casino who also owned the Penthouse Magazine tried to raise some interest on the "on-going construction" made these chips - since I collected only the $2.50 I took the snapper only. There was a protracted legal and lawsuits flying around on the building of the casino, until the Penthouse owner lost interest, could not raise more capital to finish the project "abandoned" it.
The building is now the Trump Annex of the Rain Forest cafe, and the frontage is more like the entrance way to the hotel annex of the Trump Plaza. If you are coming to Munding show I will find time to get in touch to see him again and make an appointment, I know him - he gave me his business card.
I am not sure what are the denominations he has did not dig deeper into this case, suffice only for the information that I need.
I was also thinking even if he "fabricated" the story to me this chip is so "cute and beautifully done" - more than a "fantasy" for that matter.
See ya at Munding, I will bring it in to show the AC people. AC buddies I envy you for all the snow that you got so far. All I got in Vegas was 2 inches first week of January then melted so fast but I was able to take pictures before they were gone to send to PA and NJ.
