I spoke to Scott Walker today. It seems that the contract with the Ruth family only allowed the LVC to sell the $100 Babe Ruth chip for 30 days. No one knew this until a letter from the agent arrived. At this time you can no longer purchase them. You can cash them in until a letter has gone to Gaming and a 120 day redemption period is started and is over. This is standard in LV. If a casino recalls a chip they are not supposed to sell it either. This only applies to the $100 Ruth chip at this time. It appears that over 800 out of 1500 will be destroyed. I think we will get the final number. I will LYK
