I'm going to be putting some 25¢ chips from the MGM Grand Detroit up for auction shortly and I want to make sure that I have the description of my auction correct. Are the 25¢ chips still being used on the tables? I've been hearing conflicting stories about the MGM Grand that some tables are using 25¢ chips while others are using 25¢ coins.

Also what is going on with the permanent casinos? The Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News have both seem to stop covering any stories about the casinos except for their entertainment guides. I haven't heard anything new in a while and when I called MGM Mirage in Las Vegas and asked they told me that someone would have to call me back and surprise! surprise! no one called me back. Any info would be appreciated.
