Nevada Bar, Lounge and Store Tokens |
1967 Franklin Proof TokensIn 1967, the Franklin Mint introduced gaming tokens in three additional denominations - $5, $2 and 50 cents. The quantities of gaming tokens minted for casinos in 1967 ranged from a low of 500 to a high of 100,000. In addition to those pieces minted for actual use in the casinos, 1,550 Proof-Like sets and 500 Proof sets were also minted. This year for the first time, all specimens (regular, proof-like, and proof) of the same token were struck in the same material, the only difference being the surface finish. An exception occurred with the last nine $5 specimens for collectors were struck in Bonded Silverclad for the casinos but the Proof and Proof-Like specimens for collectors were struck in solid Sterling Silver. The Sterling pieces can be readily distinguished by the word STERLING included in the design on the obverse. Due to the large number of different 1967 Gaming Tokens (92 in all) it was necessary to house them in two matching albums. The $5 tokens are in one album, the $2, $1 and half dollar tokens are grouped in a second album. As in 1966 there were also Proof-Like specimen cards issued, containing 4 tokens each. Here are the current 1967 Franklin Proof tokens that I have for sale. Please e-mail me if you're interested in purchasing any of these tokens, or have any questions about them.
