As most of you know, I collect $5 Nevada chips, one from each casino. I’m down to just over 100 chips I’m looking for (list is in my signature - please have a look). The same list many others are looking for as well. I know that many of you have these rare chips in your collections (not necessarily traders or for-sale). My question to you is, what would it take for you to let me add these rarities to my collection? Are you waiting for prices to go up? Hoping a descendant decides to collect chips? Looking for trades, not cash? Wondering if you pass away and an heir tries to sell them, will they get fair value?

Would you consider selling to me now, with me allowing you to keep it in your collection for a period of time? I would really like to knock around 15 of my want list off of my want list so I can be well under 100 to go. I will be contacting many of you that I know (or suspect) have chips from my want list, but if you can send me a list of any chips you have that you could be persuaded to let go of, now or in the future, please contact me. Trading and sales are fine, but feel free to get creative and let’s see if we can work out a mutually beneficial arrangement. Thanks.
