Jim Reilly found this "offer" on eBay. He has asked for verification of the claim that the five plain clay chips came from Tombstone and the places indicated. There is a picture of them--but not worth the scan. I also contacted the dealer and am waiting a response. There was a Crystal Palace in Tombstone with gambling; don't know anything about Big Nose Kate's.

There are Three White, One Blue/Black and One Red plain clay chips. These chips were used for gambling in the
old west. Wyatt Earp country, TOMBSTONE Arizona, the Town To Tough To Die. Each chip is just about the
size of a half dollar (a little smaller) approx. 1.5 " in diameter. They are in real good shape and old. Could not
determine in which bar they were used in: Perhaps Big Nose Kate's or the Crystal Palace. They show some ware
and tear from usage. Mostly scuffing. No Chips or Cracks. Buyer pays 2.00 Shipping.
