Here's just a portion of the Binion Collection at the Edgewater Casino in Laughlin. I have no idea why they would have this there. It's a Vegas thing. But it was pretty cool. Exactly 100 Binion Morgan & Peace Dollars in all Grades. I just happened to have my loupe with me and got to check 'em out. BU to MS-64....NOT. Pretty much over graded.

It was fun though.

That's a cool photo Lee, all those silver dollars! (drool drool)

MrLee · August 6, 2002 12:55PM

Oh yeah. First thing I spotted when we walked into the casino. I just left Marg to go check them out. Good thing she's understanding. A whole wall of silver dollars. They were selling raw Morgans and Peace dollars in the gift shop. Found a nice UNC 1921 Morgan for $20. First time I've seen them selling anything like that before so I had to bite. Good thing Marg is understanding.

I think they were overgraded--haven't heard about them since.

MrLee · August 31, 2002 8:26AM

Check out eBay. They're still selling the darn things.

Watch the Coin Vault............now they're over-priced as well.

Cubby · November 11, 2002 12:24PM

Undergraded and underpriced is better

MrLee · November 11, 2002 12:45PM

That goes without saying.

Cubby · November 11, 2002 12:48PM

Yeah, sorry about that!

I feel so embarassed (sp?)

MrLee · November 12, 2002 1:59PM

Not as much as me

I bought two

Cubby · November 14, 2002 12:57PM

At least it was not three

Glad to see someone laughing

Which company are these graded by?

MrLee · January 2, 2003 2:23PM

NGC. They had to of been extra to overgrade or just did it all "production line" style. Being I've been to Binion's Horseshoe Casino, I just had to have one.............or two. Downtown Vegas has a flavor all it's own. Ever been there?

Who is the cat in the photo???

MrLee · January 3, 2003 3:13PM

I'm not telling

Cubby · January 4, 2003 11:27AM

Yeah, been to the Horseshoe many times. Must have missed it though. Probably looking at other things.

MrLee · January 5, 2003 3:24AM

If you're referring to the photo, that wasn't taken at the Horseshoe. That's the Binion Collection at the Edgewater Casino in Laughlin. Seemed odd that they would have something like that, promoting Vegas, in Laughlin. They also had a 10'x10' display of uncut 2 dollar bills.

Ever been to Laughlin?? Anyone??

LucyBop · January 5, 2003 9:30PM

Is that Cat MrLee?????? Come on Daddy-o, you have seen me.........

MrLee · January 6, 2003 8:02AM

What cat? You mean this one?

LucyBop · January 6, 2003 9:47AM

It must be you!!!! How handsome!!!!!!!!! And I an't talking that cat pic you just posted.....

MrLee · January 6, 2003 11:32AM

Aw shucks. Stop it. I embarrass so easy

Remember now. That pictures only from the neck up. I'm 4'10" & 310 lb.
(They say it's easier to jump over me then walk around me.)
