Description
Golden Nugget $25 Las Vegas Casino Chip, Sixth Issue, R-10, Circa 1950s. The Golden Nugget issued some very classy chips. Here is an amazing color combination on an orange chip with six edge inserts and with the gold wreath design on the inlay. A true 50s chip with the "GN" Golden Nugget house mold. Not only striking in appearance, but R-10 in rarity! Three examples are known; two are locked in collections; this one is fresh from one major collection and destined to end up in another. Some astute collector will be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to acquire such a major rarity.The Golden Nugget opened in 1946 in downtown Vegas making it one of the oldest casinos in the city. The world's largest gold nugget on display, the Hand of Faith, is on exhibit in the lobby. The Nugget has been featured in numerous films, television shows, and video games.
Condition: Slight Used. Light table play showing a tiny bit of edge use and some miniscule dings.
