For most gamblers, a casino chip is simply a temporary plastic tool used to facilitate a bet at the blackjack table.

However, there is a massive and highly passionate global community that views these chips as valuable historical artifacts.

Understanding the Value of Rare Chips

A chip that originally represented one dollar can easily sell at auction for hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Chips from casinos that were demolished decades ago are highly sought after because they are no longer in circulation.

• Chips from illegal underground gambling dens of the 1920s are incredibly rare and highly prized
• Many collectors focus exclusively on $1 chips to build massive, diverse collections without spending a fortune
• The Casino Chip & Gaming Token Collectors Club (CCGTCC) hosts massive annual conventions in Las Vegas

How to Start Your Own Collection

The easiest way to start is by keeping a single $1 chip from every casino you personally visit on your travels.

To find older, obsolete pieces, you will need to engage with the thriving secondary market and specialized dealers.

Whether you view them as investments or just fun souvenirs, casino chips are tangible pieces of gambling history.
