What Kind of Chips Can I Collect? - COTD

None of these chips are quite like the other, none of these chips are quite the same!

These 4 chips do share one thing in common – they have very unusual denominations. I know of only two Australian 40¢ chips. According to “The Chip Rack” there are only two Nevada 60¢ chips, both “Good for One Keno Ticket”. The 70¢ Union Plaza and the 75¢ Star City may be completely unique – the only casino issued chips with their respected denominations.

Just a reminder that next week the What Kind of Chips Can I Collect? - COTD will be moving to the ccgtcc Message Board. I will continue to post the "trick questions" here with a link to the ccgtcc site.
