Last gasp for silver dollar slots
While this may be of limited utility, those nearby may be interested to
know that there are still slot machines in Nevada that pay out in silver dollars. In Reno, at the CalNeva there were two such machines (both accept quarters for play), one which paid out in silver eagles and one which paid out in Peace dollars (theoretically Morgans could be won as well but I didn't hit any). In Virginia City (a tourist trap outside Carson City) there was a machine in the Delta Saloon which paid out in silver dollars as well- Peace and Morgan (though I suspect most are 1921 dated like the one I won). The coins were all VG to F and could be redeemed at the cashier for $10 each if desired (I kept mine). So for any of you who want to experience the way it was or if you have a bunch of low end Peace dollars you want to try and get $10 each for (just don't bring a bag worth- the casinos aren't stupid then head west young man. BTW, in my experience, the silver dollar machines were about as generous/stingy as most other dollar slot machines in terms of amount won per dollar "invested". -Steve, who also collects silver strikes |
