NICE TO SEE THIS CHIP!

BACK IN 2004 I PURCHASED 3 OF THESE CHIPS DIRECTLY FROM THE VAULT AT HARRAH'S IN RENO. ONE WENT TO A GENTLEMAN IN LOS ANGELES FOR FACE VALUE I HAD PICKED IT UP FOR HIM AS A FRIEND. ONE I SOLD FOR $700.00 NO PROBLEM.... THE OTHER I KEPT. I BOUGHT SEVERAL OTHER CHIPS OUT OF THE VAULT BUT KICKING MYSELF FOR NOT BUYING OTHER CHIPS BACK THEN. I QUIT COLLECTING THE BRASS CORES SHORTLY AFTER THAT JUST BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO GET COMPLETE SETS AND I HEARD THE $5000 BRASS CORE, THERE WAS ONLY 2 OF THEM. ONE WAS IN BILL HARRAH'S GIRLFRIEND'S RESTAURANT IN CARSON CITY AND THE OTHER ONE BELONGED TO A GUY IN COLORADO WHO OWNS A GUN STORE AND COLLECTS CHIPS ALSO. HE DID HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE PLASTIC, I DIDN'T WANT THAT ONE.... I WAS TOLD THERE WASN'T ANY $5000 CHIPS IN THE VAULT AND SHE ONLY KNEW OF THOSE 2.... I TRIED TO GET AN ALUMINUM $25 BUT SHE DIDN'T HAVE ONE AND SHE HAD NEVER SEEN ONE... SHE WAS REALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE CHIPS.

JUST A LITTLE INFO ON MY END.
