OK Silver Strike enthusiasts, we're back with token #2 from Bellagio. This token celebrates the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art and the Andy Warhol Celebrity Portraits exhibit.
Some info from Wikipedia:
In addition to the numerous works of art found throughout the public areas of the resort, Bellagio also houses a special exhibition space displaying art work on loan from various museums and private collections from around the world. Originally the space that displayed the personal art collection of Steve Wynn, the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art has since become a rotating exhibition space after he sold his hotels in 2000
I wish I could get a great picture of the mirror finish on this thing!
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?
