While this has no direct known relationship to any company, I want to repeat my experience in a small town just across the border from Northern Kentucky.

I was dong my usual asking around in antiques shops and when I found one that said they had some chips, but the owner wasn't around, and they didn't know where they were. (haven't been back)

But I did find a case, about 20 x 12, full of dice. Rather than pick through, I just made an offer and bought the whole thing.

Some of the dice have three sides the same, although there are variations on the numbers, all the way to the obvious all 5s and all 6s.

Later I was in a service station / hardware store and saw antique slot machines, (Mills three reels) in pieces, around the workshop. I asked the guy about any chips or tokens and he said, nothing. "When I moved out of the building that's the antique shop, I left a box of Cheatin Dice." (I suspect from some locals that these people may have been associated with the illegal casino.) I have also determined that I didn't want to be a nosey Yankee, asking too many questions.

Some the paint has flaked off and I can see where weights have been inserted into the spots. Looks like lead.

Judging from the markings, AMVETS, on some of the dice, I'm guessing these were part of an old illegal casino gambling equipment.

These dice are very well made, and came from someone who made more than novelty dice, for amusing friends or tricks. Some have hot stamped markings on them which would come from a casino operation.

If I ever get back to that town, with someone who is known by these fellows, he may be able to introduce me so I can ask a little more.

I still wonder what casino it may have been and if there are chips sitting in a box in the back of the antique shop.
