New to CRH, also have a question

[LawrenceMR]

I have always checked my change while rolling it, since I was a little kid. A friend of mine told me about CRH...I never though to check others rolls too. I am looking forward to buying my first few rolls.

I have been holding onto a bunch of pre-1990 $1 Harveys Lake Tahoe Silver gaming tokens that my parents used to bring back from their weekend trips. One side is stamped "One dollar gaming token acceptable only at Harveys Lake Tahoe, Nevada". The other side is stamped "One dollar gaming token for use by players only" with what appears to be a small CT mint stamp. I want to know how much silver is in these? I did the sound test and they sound like silver to me. Thanks for any help.

A pic might help, but I don't believe they contain any silver. If this is your token, Harveys Resort Casino Lake Tahoe NV 1990 $1 Gaming Token 4932 | eBay then it contains no silver. But, there may be a collectors' market for them. This one has an asking price of nearly $13.

Yep that is it...I just wasn't sure because like I said it had the sound of silver. Even at $13 a piece not too bad. LOL

Remember thats asking price, not selling price. But, definitely worth keeping an eye on.

It's rare for a token to contain silver, especially if it's modern. Silver costs too much. Older tokens could be silver, when silver only cost a $1/ounce or less.
