# 437 - Some Casino Chips - Part 3

in #steemsilvergold5 years ago (edited)

Usually stackers buy silver/gold coins, medals, bars or rounds.

I will show you now another kind of stackable material : Casino Chips.

There are many different values with different weights and different metals. The collectors call them Strikes.

The $2 and $3 strikes are made of brass.

The $7 strikes are made of 99.9% silver and weight about .65oz.

The $10 strikes have a 99.9% silver center insert with an outer ring in brass. They have about .6oz in silver and .6oz in brass. The diameter is 43mm.

There are also the $20 strike, the $28 strike, the $40 strike, the $200 strike and the $300 strike.
The $200 and the $300 stikes weight 12oz of 99.9% silver and may have some 24kt Heavy Electroplating.

I will show you all that I have in several articles. They are all $10 strikes.

These two are from the Excalibur Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was inaugurated on June, 19 1990 and has 4,008 rooms.

The first shows the Mage Merlin with Excalibur, the Sword in the Stone.

The second shows a knight on horseback kissing a lady on foot.

Nice, I won some of those in slots a long time ago!👍

Now the casinos use only brass or plastic chips. Silver is expensive to them...

I believe it is Chef Caponejr on YouTube and discord collects poker chips. I do not remember seeing him on Steemit.

Thank you. I think I heard his name on Youtube.

I liked these chips. The Camelot Saga is very dear to me.

I was very happy when I bought these chips, because I love fantasy books and the Camelot Saga is one of the best.

The casino tokens are awesome. I always like finding them! I find they are priced at a bit of a premium round my area. But they are cool.

I bought them on Ebay, with a reasonable premium, around 20% over the silver price.
