Original $5 chip

Lot of 13 – Vintage Las Vegas Sands $5 Clay Casino Chips (1950s)

Offered here is a rare lot of thirteen (13) original Las Vegas Sands $5 gaming chips, dating to the early Rat Pack / mob-era Strip. These are authentic pressed clay casino chips, not reproductions or souvenir items.

Each chip features the classic Sands sunburst design, a hallmark of one of the most legendary casinos in Las Vegas history. The unique scalloped square shape makes these especially desirable, as they were produced in limited runs before casinos standardized round chips.

Details:
• Casino: Las Vegas Sands Hotel & Casino
• Denomination: $5
• Era: Circa 1950s–early 1960s
• Material: Pressed clay
• Design: Embossed front and back with raised lettering
• Shape: Square with scalloped edges (less common than round chips)
• Quantity: 13 total chips
• Condition: Vintage wear consistent with age; overall excellent condition

These chips come from the golden era of Las Vegas—when Frank Sinatra, the Rat Pack, and high-roller action defined the Strip. Perfect for casino chip collectors, Las Vegas history enthusiasts, or display in a memorabilia collection.

An extremely hard group to find from one of the most iconic casinos ever to operate on the Las Vegas Strip.
