Nevada Inlay Fractional of the Day

Today we visit Fallon, a surprisingly sizable small town in Northern Nevada, and the Bonanza Inn & Casino. The chip is the 2nd issue $.10, N9352 released in 1997.

An interesting chip, with the full graphic depiction of the pony express rider embodying their motto: "The mail must go through." This graphic overlay chip manufacturing technology has only been used recently, so the cost per chip for these chips was way out of balance with the denomination value. Every time a customer pocketed a souvenir of these great looking chips, the casino lost. No wonder few casinos made this style of fractionals, especially in the $.10 denomination.
