I, too, thought I was the only one crazy enough to collect casino chips. I started back in 1960 with my first trip to Vegas! I liked the looks and the feel of the chips! I would buy into a blackjack table for $20 and stick one of the $5 chips in my pocket! Sometimes that chip would be "free" and other times it would cost me a $100 or two!!
When showing chips to family and friends, they would mostly have the same comment...why didn't you cash that in before you left?
It wasn't until the '90's that I found that there were others with the same passion! It has been a fun ride since then!!
Enjoy your collecting and your collection!!
