The story is the sellers friend's father had to go to an assisted living facility. When they cleaned out his house they found a box with several mint boxes of these chips. The sellers friend asked the seller to get what he could for them and they would split the money. I think there were several boxes of the 1's a few boxes of 5's and maybe a box of 25's. The seller is a great guy and an honest person. They are all in mint uncirculated condition.
