Is this Nevada Hotel Casino .25 frac worth anything? (1 Viewer)

[upNdown]

I can’t seem to find any of these on eBay or Spinettis or even anywhere on Google. Of course, the words Nevada and Hotel are probably tough searches. And even if it is scarce, that doesn’t mean it’s worth anything. But I’d hate to sell if for a buck and find out it’s a hundred dollar chip.
Thanks for any help

I don't have my TCR handy, so I can't look it up, but it appear to be where it says it's from and not some generic chip.

This is from a 2009 chip guide and prices fluctuate wildly, so with a grain of salt

TCR20 (newest edition) has this at $15-$19.

TCR20 (newest edition) has this at $15-$19.

And half low book value is EXTREMELY common eBay pricing, plus or minus a bit. So $5-9 actual realized value for the chip.

Is that the whole story?

Extremely chip dependent. I've seen stuff go at or over TCR prices. Some desirable chips way over. It is a price guide, not a price list.

This, being a mid-rarity chip, not a particularly high-demand casino and being a simple hot-stamp, the half book value seems right.


[EDIT], I did see a couple of the pink halves that had sold on eBay at mid-single digit values which jives with the $5-$9 suggestion @FDLmold gave. It's tough to relate TCR values with reality, particularly for chips that are uncommon. I prefer to look at older completed auctions if they are available but use TCR as a "pie in the sky" high value more often than not.

I did say that rule was extremely common, but not 100%. The only way to determine if a chip gets more than that is to a) check recent eBay or thechipboard or chip chat prices, b) auction/sell a chip yourself, or c) ask!
