is it all black or does it have edge inserts? all black= 3rd issue ncv $25/38/50 if it has edge inserts= keep reading
What does the center of the chip look like? does it have a hot stamp, a metal center(blue), or an illustration of the building?
if it has a hot-stamp= 3rd issue r-9 $400/600/800
if it has a blue metal center= 2nd issue R-10 $2000/3000/4000
if it has an illustration= keep reading
does the outer rim have hats with canes or the word "NEVADA" stamped into it?
if it says "NEVADA"= Throw it in the trash!!!, if hats and canes= keep reading
if you got this far, congrats. your chip SHOULD be a 1st issue black C&J mold with 3 cream or off-white colored inserts and a white scalloped -edged inlay in the center with an illustration of the famous Landmark building and a red $100. (if not, I don't know what to tell you).
now the big question, does it have a drill hole, notches cut into the edge, or is it completely intact?
notches or drilled= probably still worth at least a couple grand..I'm not really sure
completely intact= HOLY @$@#&*^%! BATMAN!!!!! JACKPOT!!!!!! ( the only one known in existance had a $40,000 price tag last time I saw it, and you probably just made the owner cry).
hope this helped,please let us know which one it is.
