Smitty Silver Chips?
In Response To: Re: When selling are you ()

Smitty, Said

I sell a ton of Las Vegas silver chips in my town at a local auction.

Do you mean tokens or silver strikes?

Tokens were played in slot machines most common are $1.00 tokens. Tokens can range in values from 2 cents to $2000.

Silver Strikes were won in a slot machine, and at one time had .6 oz of silver per $10 strike. Most common were $10 strikes but some were up the $300 range (which 30 - $10 strikes were traded for one $300 strike).

There were also .9999 silver tokens created in limited runs for casinos and the $5.00 1967 Franklin Mint Tokens were Sterling Silver.
