Close, but no cigar.
In Response To: C.J. J.K. ()

Allan,

Good choice, close, but no cigar.

The CJ JK $1 chip is from the Torarica Hotel and Casino in Suriname. It says West Indies, South America on the chip. This was one of the first Caribbean casinos opened by Clifford Jones, ex Lt. Governor of Nevada, and Jake Kozloff, Las Vegas casino owner (Last Frontier), after they found themselves no longer welcome in the Nevada casino industry. The pair opened up casino gaming on many Caribbean Islands, including Little Bay casino in St. Maarten, The Holiday Inn in Aruba, the Flamboyant in Curacao and the Palace and Torarica casinos in Suriname.

There is a similar chip on this page that is my favorite, it has a nicer picture inlay.
