It had to be 20 years ago, I was in a coin shop in Orange County, California, and I asked the owner if he had any casino chips for sale........He pulled out a BOX of Bugsy Flamingo $5.00 chips........He wanted $1 each and I bought them......This was WAY before anyone knew what they were worth, including me....I took a bunch to las vegas and traded them to Bill Borland at $15 each for chips I needed from Las Vegas.......True, I got some great chips for my collection, but none as good as the BUGSY $5........
