Please feel free to PM on these. Some are very nice, some are well played! It is a full rack.
I landed a nice Crystal Park set that I am going to use instead of my planned Vegas house mold set. I payed too much for these but can take a small loss if needs be.

$350 for the rack!

Cheers,
Joe

As expected my original deal fell through. Asking what I paid for them: $400 for the rack.
Cheers,
Joe

Bump!
As mentioned earlier, I paid $400 but am willing to take a small loss on these. They are currently up for sale on eBay.
 
Forgive my ignorance, but isn't this just a 100-chip rack of live Flamingo Las Vegas chips? Can't they be had for $100 at the casino? Or is it the fact that someone had to sort through the various types of $1 Flamingo chips in play and sort out a rack of this style chip? What am I missing?

I have two in my collection -- the "Las Vegas, NV" type and the "Las Vegas" type shown below.

1.) Casino closed almost 20 years ago
2.)My humble opinion is that it’s the sweetest $1 ever created
3.)Hard to find in this shape

The current live 1 at the Flamingo is a solid blue chip. Prior to the current chip there were various chips with tri-color edge spots.

I think there are still chips with edge spots in circulation but they are rare to find with the vast majority of chips being the solid blue with no edge spot version.

Not a live chip. The Flamingo was dropped and sold off by Hilton, and the chips went from a house mold to the classic Paulson THC mold without the rainbow in the center
