This chip actually caught me by surprise—it was issued several years ago, around the time of some of the poker $20s (In between the Venetian and the Wynn, if memory serves). I had faithfully purchased all of the new issue $20s from Nevadacasinochips.com (come back soon, Andy! ), but had not even heard that a new baccarat $20 was in the works at the Hilton. When I saw an example come up on eBay, I contacted Andy Hughes, who was similarly not aware of its existence. However, he got in touch with a contact in the Hilton cage, who was able to procure him some new examples.
And thus it was mine
