See full list on casinochipsworld.com. Chips and money (a complicated relationship) The first thing to understand is that chips are real money, just in a different form. This truth is simultaneously obvious and elusive. In other words, neither patrons nor the casino can use chips in lieu of money other than for the specific purpose for which they were made at the gaming tables. The same regulation states, 'Chips and tokens are solely representatives of value which evidence a debt owed to their custodian by the licensee that issued them and are not the property. A chip from Al Capone’s Moonlight Club in Chicago is priced at $20, a keychain from the Edgewater Hotel-Casino in Laughlin, Nev., costs $1.50, an unwrapped bar of soap from the Flamingo in Las.

Many auctions with no bids...so not a lot of value based on about a minutes worth of research. Possibly a little bit, though...
Are these 'collectibles' typically worth the face value, or less or more?
Less than face value.
Once, while travelling, I found a casino that had changed their chips out (and their name) - the old chips were no longer negotiable. They were selling off boxes of low denomination chips (60x $5, 20x $1 - $340 face value) for $10 - about 3% of face value.
IMO, the frames are worth more than the chips, and I wouldn't pay more than $10 a frame. The bare chips are maybe worth another $20.
If you should happen to find a negotiable chip in the mix, this raises its value significantly. If you happen to have a buyer lined up, this too raises the value. This is reasonably cool man cave decor.
Don't expect to make a killing on these.
Not buying that either, but the Sinatra memorabilia is probably worth snagging, if it's a good price.
I live in the Detroit area and know a dude who runs estate sales out in the 'well-to-do' suburbs all the time. Very often these become estate auctions, and I've gotten some incredible bargains.

But I'm interested in casino stuff (not chip's, boring unless you can turn a quick profit)
People are probably going to grab the known sports memorabilia.

Can you get me the Korr's 6 pack? I'll pay up to $60.
That Al Jolson a light up promo sign? I'm interested, I have no clue what is worth but i'm thinking most people may avoid it. The right person would love that.
You might want to research the slot machines and see if there's some value.

There is some AWESOME Vegas stuff here, the Rat-Pack stuff and all. I never got a clear answer about the old chips, but I think I'm willing go pay like maybe up to 20% of face value.. THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK, EVERYONE!!! Marty
That newer slot sold for $500. I bought that older slot machine for $252, but I can't get it to work yet... I think it needs some more dimes to prime the payout chamber.
It looks great, and it weighs a TON. it is an Imperial Crown, built by 'Pacific Manufacturing, L.L.C.' of Japan, I'm guessing around 1960 or so. I only found one Google photo of it and no information, like a MANUAL or specification. I can't find any more info about it yet, but I'm looking...

Sounds like your friend is doing something right, to get 5x face value, though I can't claim any expertise on chip collecting.
Are Old Casino Chips Worth Money
Out of all of it, the only thing I really craved was that huge Sinatra CD compilation. Did you notice what that went for?That looked like an exceptional sale. EB, did you get in on any of the Sinatra stuff?

My friend runs the auctions, he works with the home owner to set the prices and he just gets a straight commission on everything sold, like 10%. Apparently, the owner was big-time into Vegas and sports, and had enough money to buy all the memorabilia he wanted... I think those chip collections were custom done by the owner himself and that's why the prices seem high. Actually, everything was a bit pricey at this sale, but tomorrow should be better bargains.
But, like I was saying to coilman, there are a LOT of estate sales going on right now around here... who can afford health care? SERIOUSLY! This kind of thing is going to be common place VERY soon the way our economy is heading, and the way the medical profession has enslaved us all.
