I don't recall ever seeing one. Has anybody ever bought or made a home set of chips that came from an Iowa casino?
Set of chips from an Iowa casino ? (1 Viewer)

Someone had some plastic fracs (Bud Jones?) from Riverside for sale recently. I also recall seeing some Diamond Jo quarters for sale, but that's technically East Dubuque, IL. That's the casino my dad and brother go to regularly--I'm from Bellevue, just south of Dubuque.
Catfish Bend here in Burlington has a really pretty RHC set. I've thought about seeing if I can harvest some of their solid yellow fracs and $1's.

Dig these! I'm guessing you're from Iowa.

I only ask because I ended up with these:
and some of them would make a helluva nice set...
I'm looking at you Hard Rock Sioux City, Sioux City Sue, Steamboat, and most of the Dubuque casinos.

Locker room! What can my points be redeemed for?

Because Hawkeyes are naturally afraid of the color red?
Let’s see—Wisconsin, Ohio State, Nebraska. Yup, it checks out.

Well we have lost the last couple to you guys...... but I think that is going to be over for a while...... hopefully
How’d you come across all those?

A guy liquidating his Iowa collection. There was one chip in there that I needed, but I had to buy all the rest.

If I had a time machine, THESE are the sets I'd build. Each of these was open a year or less in the early 90s.
And if anybody is in Dubuque, I need one of these from Q Casino.

I have a barrel or so left from my two racks of Riverside fracs, but I wasn't ever able to build a playable Iowa-only set even while I lived there.
@FDLmold I don't have that (moved away long before that rebrand) but I do have the original Chipco yellow frac from Dubuque Greyhound Park & Casino and a Mystique snapper. (or is it the other way around? haven't looked at those in a while)

I’d go for a set of these:
The Riverside fracs are RT Plastics. Diamond Jo in Dubuque went land-based and unless they moved, they're still on the Iowa side of the river.
Cedar Rapids. My main fishing holes were Meskwaki and Riverside.
I always thought it was in E. Dubuque. I was wrong.

My hoard has both chips as well. Greyhound Park was the yellow ceramic snapper first, then Mystique was the yellow ceramic 50c chip.
Nope - holding on to em for now.

Ceramic. Wild rose looks like it has had two ceramic racks and one plastic rack.
I'd take any and all extra Paulsons off your hands.

If that is a sample Terrible's set from their old Iowa casino I'd be interested in it.
