In thinking about my list, I'm probably not even close to 20, so I might still be in time for saving!
Here's a brief summary of what I collect:
Chips:
Bicentennials
$20 Chips
$10 Chips
Desert Inn Chips
Other iconic or cool chips I decide I can't live without .
Other casino:
Casino/Nevada related Bicentennial tokens/medals/peraphernalia.
Slot glass (only a couple so far, but your "of the day" posts have been inspiring/tempting me for more )
Other casino related stuff that I think would look cool in my man cave/poker room (Treasure Island door pulls; Brass poker hand ranking plaque from Caesar's Palace, etc.).
Playable poker chip sets
Non-casino related:
Coins (mostly the U.S. annual proof sets)
Different languages/versions of Monopoly
Backgammon sets
Backgammon doubling cubes
Leather-bound books (mostly from the Easton Press)
Elongated/squished pennies (started this year with my kids on our first trip to Disneyland)
Survival/Camping knives
and most recently, Bureau of Engraving and Printing/ANA Souvenir card prints of vintage currency.
See? That's only 17! That's nowhere even close to 20!
Thanks for letting me share.
