Does anyone have any information concerning this chip? I was in touch with the Executive Director of St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Gaming Commission and this is what he told me.
"The chip in question was never an authorized chip used in any gaming enterprise of the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe. I know it isn’t a sample or sold in the gift shop. The Saint Regis Mohawk Tribes operates the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino (the AMC), this operation opened in 1999 and is still operational. The Tribe signed a compact with the State of New York to operate a casino in 1993/4. From then til 1999 there were a number of groups vying to open and operate a casino for the Tribe. I believe one of those entities ordered the chips in question. Over the years a number of people have made inquiries and/or tried to cash them in. They do not have any value and never have."
Just wanting to see if anyone else has any more knowledge about this chip, thanks
