Defunct Playboy casino chips turn up on eBay!

20 years ago the Playboy casino in Atlantic City closed its doors, but it seems although it is long gone it is defiantly not forgotten. Chips from the failed casino have been showing up on eBay in ever increasing numbers thanks to a find on a construction site in Hernando, Mississippi.

Apparently the coins were sent to Green Duck Manufacturing to be destroyed, but what happened to them after they arrived in Mississippi is a mystery. Green Duck eventually closed and a community centre went up in its place.

State Police with the Division of Gaming Enforcement confirmed they know about the find, but "have not initiated an investigation at this point".

Until the mystery is solved, the sales will continue. And so will the mourning for casino chip collectors who have been devastated by the flooding of the market by what was once a very rare casino chip.
