Gaming Tokens of Treasure Island

avatar
(Edited)

Yesterday, I mentioned to @kerrislravenhill that I'd show my Gamimg Tokens!

It turned out that we have almost identical tokens. And it thrilled me to know that my stacking sis takes pleasure in these things too!

What I have here are other the gaming tokens from Treasure Island. I showed the Treasure Island ship the other day.

Limited-edition $10 Gaming Tokens representing various casinos from major gambling centers across the U.S. are produced with a 100% silver composition. It has troy ounces of.999 pure silver in it.

This $10 Gaming Token carries the logo of Treasure Island. It is the stylized "T" and "I" for Treasure Island, and crossed swords.

Reasons Why Pirates Have Parrots In Fiction
According to East Tennessee State University, it’s likely that the author of Treasure Island got his information about pirates from A General History of Pyrates (an 18th-century book about swashbucklers). The book mainly took its information from famous pirates like Blackbeard, Stede Bonnet, Mary Read, Anne Bonny.
These people formed an egalitarian pirate republic in the Bahamas between 1717 and 1725. The gang of pirates heavily influenced the character Long John Silver in Treasure Island, and Cap’n Flint was featured to reinforce the character’s place in the wealthy Atlantic trade. Many books, movies, and stories used Treasure Island as inspiration and reference. This made the small detail of parrots all the more prominent until they became inseparable from pirates.We can also thank Treasure Island for popular clichés like eye patches on pirates, peg legs for pirates, and harsh West Country English accents belonging to pirates.

The other side of the gaming token is a parrot wearing a pirate's hat. I think it's cute that the parrot depicted has a hat with details of a skull! And it has a peg leg too!

Next is a One Dollar Gaming Token, also from Treasure Island. It is made of brass and 37MM in diameter.

I got this because of the design, which is identical on both sides. It has the typical pirate insignia: a skull and cross swords. But, the skull is wearing a bandana, has an eye patch!

These are the gaming tokens for Treasure Island that I have. There is another token that I would buy if it was available at a reasonable price. It's the 2000 Millennium Series of Treasure Island.
Anyway, I have a more silver tokens in my stack to show you. They are fun to collect!

Thats pretty cool. I had no idea they created this in such good form. We have plastic and wood ones in Australia.

Although I have never been to a high roller place so maybe they are different there

In reality, pirates might entertain themselves by playing with Pirate Polly or letting parrots sit on their shoulders during the voyage. Once the ship reached a port where it could sell goods, parrots would be treated like any other cargo. So, they would be sold for profit, and the pirate would return to work.

And you could tell which Pirate is the Profiteering Pet Parrot Poacher by the Poop stains on his pirate back, so it is essential that a good laundry service is available on the island paradise. I had @punkysdad's parrot on my shoulder a few times in the past with that Parrot Poopy experience. 🕊 And I thought pigeons were bad enough.

Great minds think alike @silversaver888! 😇
Amazing that @kerrislravenhill and you both have almost the same gaming token!🤗
I wonder how many of these gaming tokens are in collector or stackers hands!😇😊

Unfortunately, no one has reported figures, and it says no one wants to currently exchange them!

Pretty sweet tokens! I don't have any Treasure Island ones! I'll have to work on that! I do have a cool one for tomorrow, a much more obscure Vegas one. The Jolly Roger sure became the flay of the pirates though!

Random question for you if you don't mind? What browser are you using when you post to Leo? I've been using Brave and wonder if that's why it's not working for me?

For fractional silver, I get U.S. Constitutional coins: dimes, mostly quarters, and halves. I am not into fractional silver. Except, of course, for these silver tokens. They are large at 43MM. And they are .60 oz of .999 fine. And they are fun!!!

I use leofinance.10 and sometimes PeakD for LeoFinance post.
I hope this helps.

Vegas need to do more of these, they’re great!

Wouldn’t it be amazing to “cash out” in real silver and gold?
