$5 Slot Machine Token of the Day...


Desert Diamond Casino, Tucson, AZ.

These are now obsolete. At the time that they were first made, the casino only had 6 machines that could accept this denomination. Since then, the Tohono Oodham Nation has opened a second gaming facility in Tucson and while there are more than 6, $5 slot machines, they are part of the more flexible, multi-denomination machines, using TITOs.

I have an avaialable trader of this token.

NOTE: With the advent of TITO (EZ Pay) (ticket systems) it seems that slot machine tokens are a thing of the past. While $1 tokens are fairly plentiful, the higher denominations are not seen as often. Now, I don't have a great number of these, but what few $5 slot machine tokens I do have, I thought that others might be interested in seeing them, so I will be trying to post one daily (as a "$5 Slot Machine Token of the Day" series) until I run out of examples.

Of course this means that I am always looking for available examples. If you think you might have an example or two that I'd be interested in, please send me an email. Also, it's quite alright to post scans of your own examples at anytime as part of these daily posts.

If I have a trader available for anything I show, I will also make note of that availability.

Thanks for looking!

Jim
