Awesome pair of limited edition casino silver tokens!
You’re getting two premium bimetallic $10
SILVER MELT VALUE
Approx. 0.60 troy oz .999 fine silver per token
Pair: ~1.20 troy oz
At $70/oz that is about $42 melt each / ~$84 melt for the pair (silver content only — collector premium is extra).
Spot changes, so this is an estimate based on typical $10 Silver Strike specs.
Gaming Tokens:
Harrah’s Lake Tahoe (stars around bold logo, Lake Tahoe, Nevada)
Aladdin Resort Casino (iconic lamp design / London Club style, Las Vegas, NV)
Both have gorgeous .999 fine silver centers with gold-tone outer rings. Great addition to any casino token, Silver Strike, or Las Vegas memorabilia collection!
History & Why They Were Made
Issued by major casinos in the early 2000s as limited-edition collector pieces that could also function as $10 gaming tokens. They promoted the properties, appealed to high rollers and souvenir hunters, and offered real silver value during a popular era for casino exonumia.
When Made
Early-to-mid 2000s (Aladdin examples align with the resort’s operation on the Las Vegas Strip, 2000–2007).
How, Where & How Many
Struck in the USA by specialist firms like Global Minting (G mint mark) or Continental Coin Corporation (CC). Silver centers were precision-struck from .999 fine silver planchets and bonded with gold-tone outer rings using bimetallic techniques.
Mintage: Limited edition — exact numbers unknown (typical low production for these series; collector catalogs often list as “?”).
Specs
Face Value: $10 each
Metal: .999 Fine / Pure Silver center + gold-tone bimetallic ring
Diameter: ~39–40 mm
Condition: Nice circulated examples with sharp details and some natural toning/handling marks (as shown in your photos)
Edges: Smooth (standard for these issues)
