The name of the casino is.....Treasure Island !!

Hence the pirate picture. The casino is located in Novosibirsk, Siberia.

The denomination is: 1 piastre, which converts to 25 rubbles. My friend picked this chip up in his home town at the casino a few weeks ago. According to Constantine, the reason they used the Piastre was trying to keep in the pirate and Treasure Island theme. Stange. But then again...it's Siberia!

My friends sister is coming to the USA in December, and with any luck, she'll be bringing me some extras. Evidently, it is extrememly expensive to mail things to the USA from there.
