Today we will look at a token from one of OG mega-resorts on the Las Vegas strip, Mirage las Vegas. The Mirage opened on November 22, 1989.
This token celebrates "The Man of Many Voices", Danny Gans, who performed at the Mirage from 2000-2009.
I'm having a hard time finding a good picture that is not touched up but if you've been to Vegas or seen the Mirage in photos you probably know the windows have a golden tint to them, well, The hotel's distinctive gold windows get their color from actual gold dust used in the tinting process!
These tokens have a tasty 0.60ozt silver center surrounded by a ring of brass. When I take them out of the airtite to photograph them I can hear the center piece rattle around inside that brass.
All the tokens I will be showing are a $10 value at the casino cage but they sell for well over $20 on the open market. I wonder if folks actually cashed these in for a crisp 10 dollar bill at the casino?
