"I wasn't aware that many were purchased."

Not only were they bought that first day, but there was at least one reorder. I knew the guy running the game & he let me have whatever I wanted except for one time. They were running very low on the $5's & $10's & he asked me to wait until the new order came in.

As to...

"I still recall Bob Orme's posting of the yellow high value Jeton. I think it was the $1000"

Yes, it was the $1,000, Bob had one of his many good runs on that table & I was there for one of them. I scanned the $1,000 below after that run.
