Gold-Nuggets.org is the patent holder for 'casino chips with a transparent center portion containing discrete moving particles.'
The "NEXT CASINO CHIP"TM is designed with two major objectives in mind: Stimulation and Breakage (Retention).
Craps gamblers, being very superstitious, are excited by the clatter of shaking dice. Now, the "Next Casino Chip" offers table and slot gamblers the same stimulation.
Chips retained as souvenirs add substantially to the casino's bottom line. Breakage rates will soar when a guest notices that his/her "Next Casino Chip" contains silver, gold or diamonds!
Another advantage of the "Next Casino Chip":
Other varieties of the "Next Casino Chip" allow casino patrons to personally identify with their chips. Examples include the "birthstone chip", the "Indian casino chip", and "ethnic chips" for Chinese New Years, St. Patty's Day, Cinco de Mayo and others.
Other chips include the "my favorite casino chip" (identified by a moving casino logo or name) and the "gambler's chip" (containing small dice, four leaf clovers, or miniature coins). More are planned.
