Hall of Fame Official Museum Collection · Tropicana Hotel · Las Vegas · 1999–2006 Museum Provenance COA Included 100% Authentic Free Shipping Free Returns About This Item Item Description Six Chips from One of the Las Vegas Strip\'s Most Obscure and Beloved Closed CasinosThis is a set of six (6) authentic 25-cent casino chips from Little Caesars Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The chips read \"LITTLE CAESARS / 25¢ / LAS VEGAS, NEV.\" — note the older \"NEV.\" abbreviation rather than the later standardised \"NV\" format, identifying these as an earlier issue from the casino\'s operational period. All six chips are white with gold lettering and feature the casino\'s characteristic embossed rim design. Slight natural variations in the gold colouring across the six chips reflect normal ageing differences consistent with chips from different production runs during the casino\'s 24-year history.Historical SignificanceLittle Caesars Casino operated from 1970 to 1994 on the Las Vegas Strip at 3665 Las Vegas Boulevard South — a small, unpretentious strip mall location just one block south of what is now Bally\'s, on the site where the Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino now stands. Despite its modest size, Little Caesars punched far above its weight in Las Vegas history. It was one of the first casinos in Nevada to offer a dedicated sports book, and it became famous for offering some of the most player-friendly table game rules in the city — including 25-cent craps and $1 blackjack — attracting a loyal following of value-conscious gamblers and locals. The casino entered the history books in 1987 when sports bettor Bob Stupak placed what is widely reported as the first million-dollar sports bet in Las Vegas history at the Little Caesars sports book during Super Bowl XXI, a wager that made national headlines and cemented the casino\'s place in gambling lore. Little Caesars had no connection to the more famous Caesars Palace on the Strip, despite the similar name. The casino permanently closed in 1994 when its lease expired, and the site was subsequently redeveloped. Every Little Caesars chip is now fully obsolete and irreplaceable, and the casino\'s small size and 24-year operational history mean that surviving chips — particularly in sets are genuinely scarce on the collector market.
