I have saved a couple from the casinos I have gone to just as a memento of the places I have been other than the sentamental value will they ever have real value?

Never been able to walk away with extra chips

They just as collectible as other pieces of exomumia but I don't think the price would be worth it unless it's a 50 cent or 1$ piece

Yotie, are you talking about poker chips or slot tokens?

I know there are some very expensive silver strike tokens out there....I had one with Alladin on it and a buddy of mine that was really into them gave me around $300 for it and the book value was $500

Most of the Indian casinos in Michigan and Wisconsin have gone to coin-less slots where you put bills in and get a receipt out. I heard that's happening all over, even Vegas. Is that true?

So -- do you think that will increase values for casino tokens? I have quite a few, but like Yotie, I keep them as souvenirs not as collectables.

Just curious.

Thats true around Kansas City. I had a friend go out to Vegas a few months ago and I asked her to pick up some $1 tokens. She said that they told her it woulnd't be long until event the $1 tokens were gone.

I rarely go to the casino to gamble, but frankly I've stopped altogether. Its just not as fun to hit the 'cash out' button on my wifes machine when she's not looking. I just don't get that same enjoyment when it just spits out a piece of paper instead of taking 5 minutes to drop $50 of nickles out of a slot.
