Afternoon everyone ….
In case you didn’t know the #silvergoldstackers meet up is now just over a month away. This has now become an annual event for us. The dates are Friday March 15 through Sunday March 17. If any of you are interested in meeting up, just let us know on the silvergoldstackers discord.
Anyhoooo….
I’m so ready for this trip, I’ve needed a vacation for a while now. But I came across a piece just yesterday that reminded me even more of the meetup.
It’s a ten dollar silver casino gaming token. It’s from the Lots A Slots Casino. I tried researching this casino and came up empty. I’m guessing that it’s no longer around. That quite possible since this token was produced in 1994. That much I did find out.
And believe it or not, I also found it in Numista. Here is the info they had on this gaming token:
