Chris Chip Collection and Las Vegas Media Stuff (1 Viewer)

[ChrisinVegas]

From time to time, I will update this thread with things from my casino memorabilia collection.

I will also share articles from my Las Vegas news website www.cyinterview.com.

I only have one barrel of chips in quantity. I have always been more of a single collector. Though my collection is small, it does have a few good things in it.

Here's my first casino chip/memorabilia story for you guys:

To begin, one of my favorite and most rare chips is the Moulin Rouge $100 Can Can pictured below from 1955. An uncancelled version sold for $2500 in 2013. I paid around $300 in 2019 for this cancelled one.

.

According to numerous chip experts, it's the best variation of the cancelled one they have ever seen. Others believe there are only about four examples each of both the cancelled and non-cancelled version. I've only ever seen one other cancelled version and it looked in rough shape.

The history of the Moulin Rouge has always interested me. So, that's my first post.

Feel free to ask any questions or leave any comments.

Great chip! Boy, what I wouldn't give for a playable set of those.

If you worked hard enough, you probably could make a playable set of the $5s and $25 sets. It be an expensive set, but it's possible. It would also take a few years.

There might be 4 to 8 of the $100 chips out there in the whole world.

Hope you all enjoyed the chip convention here in Las Vegas.

On Saturday evening, I was invited over to one of Las Vegas's newest shows.

Here's the show review below:

It was nice finally meeting @Ben8257 and @FordPickup92 for the first time last week. They are without a doubt true diehard chipers.
