Even many hard core Star Wars fans don’t know about the story behind the gold dice in the Millnieum Falcon. The gold dice appeared in the very first Star Wars film in 1977.

They can be seen here:

And on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine:

Hans Solo won the Millnieum Falcon in a game called Corellian Spike from Lando... with the gold dice!

For a detailed explanation of the story behind the gold dice in Star Wars, this video is a must watch!

The narrator of the video speculates where the gold dice are now.... but I can tell you with certainty where to find some actual 24 karat gold dice like Steemian @sevinwilson and #sevinswilsonsdad has:

And that Goldmatters has:

Note that there are two versions of the Menē 24 karat gold dice, both brushed and polished.

Both versions are in stock on the Menē website. Here is my invite link: http://Mene.com/invite/JrT26p . You will earn $5 in Menē credit which you can use towards your 24k gold dice!

I love movie trivia and there is something particularly enchanting about small details that writers choose to include like this. Finding these type of Easter Eggs is just another treasure hunt and since this one includes GOLD, it was even more satisfying to find!

If anyone can put me in touch with someone from the Star Wars franchise so we can get these gold dice in a future Star Wars movie.... lets just say I will make it worth your while ;)

I'll have a word with some people that know some people that know THE people and see what happens....

Don't hold your breath though, my people have not spoke to some people that know THE people for a few years but it's worth a shot! 😉

Ill take what I can get! Thank you for your effort @welshstacker!!

I watched the movie so often.... I never saw the dice. Lovely detail. 😊

I love this fun fact!

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Dude!!!! This totally makes me want to splurge on a Millennium Falcon toy so I can hang the dice from them!!

Lol right??? I might do the same

We can take out a good learn from your blog.

What you learn explain also please

Even many hard core Star Wars fans don’t know about the story behind the gold dice in the Millnieum Falcon. The gold dice appeared in the very first Star Wars film in 1977.

hahahahahahahaha

I sure hope so

Star war is like an old war story

Yes, an oldie but a goodie

Yes! Mene's gold dice are so dope! 😎 One day perhaps..

I can totally vision these topping off your stack!

I know this movie is a new version but I have never seen the 1977 version, just this time I know about the gold dice in this movie because I do not focus too much on this star wars movie it's just my sister who really like this movie.
Thank for sharing friend, may always successful

Its a classic! Enjoy :)

maybe on youtube there, i'll search for it later

Seeing George tomorrow night lol. Never know what you are going to write about next. Still very interesting though. Rather have the Mene ones though as a lucky charm. Thought you were talking crap as I couldn't find them in the pictures. Helps when you watch the video though and now I see them. Nice post yet again.

Thank you! Yeah there are little tough to see, at the top of the photo slightly to the right. Thanks for reading :)

Always read your posts as I have said before like reading something from someone who is that passionate about something. Plus you learn something. Never knew there were dice in the movie but could come up in a question somewhere in my life. Could be on who wants to be a millionaire lol.
