The chip is in TCR as a Z5.

There is no value or casino associated with it.

2000 chips were delivered in Reno from USPC on 1/12/32. Upon passage of legislation to legalize gambling in Nevada, these chips were handed out as mememtos of the occasion. There are stories of (drunken?) cowboys shooting the chips out of the air with six shooters.

This chip has, without a doubt, the largest inlay USPC ever made, either for crest and seals or any other chip. These chips must have been the costliest crest & seals ever since a custom punch had to be made for this one order.
