● Four Queens | $10 | Silver Strike Token Entitled, Exonumia ● Silver Casino Strike Token used in Silver Strike Slot machines, back in the day when you put Silver Dollars in the machine at Gambling halls mostly, in Nevada, and AC. ● Encapsulated. ● Casino tokens were first produced by the Franklin Mint for Harrah\'s Reno and Lake Tahoe casinos in 1965, when the rising price of silver made the use of actual silver dollars for gaming purposes problematic. Good only in the issuing casino, these coins could be dropped into slot machines or tossed on a card table to place a bet. Eventually, the coins themselves became collectibles, whether manufactured by Franklin Mint or companies such as Osborne Coinage, Michigan Tool & Engineering, Product Engineering, or Wendell\'s. ● The Heyday of the casino token was short-lived thanks to the arrival of the Eisenhower or \"Ike\" dollar in 1971. While millions of collectible strikes of the Ike dollar contained 40 percent silver, tens of millions more general circulation coins were made of nothing but copper and nickel. Because of this new supply of non-silver dollars, the practice of minting tokens for the casinos ceased. ● When the Eisenhower dollar was removed from circulation in 1978, casinos were given the green light to get back into the token business, which they did enthusiastically in 1979, so much so that the tokens from that year remain plentiful for collectors. ● As I can remember, when the \'Eisenhower Dollar\' was removed from circulation in 1978, so were most slot machines accepting the Silver dollars in the casinos. Today most all machines are Electronic. ● The Four Queens Hotel and Casino is located in downtown Las Vegas on the Fremont Street Experience. No Credit? No problem!
