Nevada Casino 1/2 ounce rounds

I just picked these up yesterday. I cannot find them on ebay and have never seen them before.
All of them are marked .999 silver and weigh approx. 1/2 ounce each. These 12 weigh 6.5 ounces together.

I also picked this up a couple days ago... I love the flag design.
Anyone have any information on the maker or size of this ingot? Is it rare?

    I'm not sure if those rounds (strikes) are casino issued. The casino issued ones have a face value...I've never seen 1/2 oz casino strikes...


    eBay reference on the bar:
    Kennedy bars on eBay
    "Bongo drive 1984 Lincoln that looks like old coin dug from ground."
  • Are you sure those are not the Centers popped out of those brass outer ring casino strikes? Some of those look familiar. I just sold one of those flag ingots, It went around $12-$13
    Its all relative

    You're probably right. The edges are kind of crude and a bit sharp.
    I could see them being popped out of the brass or whatever those casino rounds have outside the silver.
    Thanks.

    Yup...that's what they are ... take a look at the Rio Strike on eBay....

    Rio $10 Strike

    To bad ... now it's worth only bullion or less....
    But I thought that the silver portion is supposed to be .6 oz...
