The Source - Card Collecting 101 / Re: History of golden nugget
« on: September 19, 2014, 08:56:30 PM »

The only one idea cames to me. As this deck is wrapped in individual transparent cello, it might be a part of a 2-decks gift set. Similar sets were in use at that days in Vegas casinos, including Silver Slipper (their set had blue and green cards) and MGM Grand (brown and gold cards). All these cards were individually wrapped in cello and had a common paper box for 2 decks (sample photo attached).

Hey iDoctor, maybe you might want to check on your attached files? It seems to no work for me. Yup I too think that the borderless green GN is from a 2-decks gift set as I have quite a couple of casino gift sets myself. Namely the MGM, Sahara (3rd ed?), Frontiers (4 boxes of One way back, still finding the Two way back design) and Dunes.

I am definitely interested in looking at what's inside the purp Carson City Nugget deck. Please try to re-upload the photos again  ;)

And also its been my pleasure too to know vintage casino cards collectors like you because comparing vintage card collectors and modern cards collectors, vintage collectors are really little.

Cheers,

P.S. First GN generation had purple?? Please, PM me photos if you have..

Hey iDoctor, sad to say, like I mentioned, I am missing the purple as well as the orange GN. Its way too rich for my blood especially for the current market. The rarest GN I have is the blue one and that had caused a big hole in my pocket.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that I have a borderless second generation Green GN and wonder if you guys have any idea about this deck?

And fredv, I have attached a photo of the purp Carson City Nugget. Don't know if your interested in taking a look again =p

Cheers,

PS: Sorry for the bad quality of the photos as I am using my handphone camera to take. Hope I can take better photo when I borrow a quality camera from my friend.

Jerry's Nugget, for example, are quite easy : two colors, one year of production. Period.
Most of other Vegas Casinos 70's cards are like that .. Only Golden Nugget have more than 6 colors and years

Hi Fredv,

I don't normally post here and mainly a lurker. However it itchs me to post when people mention vintage casino cards as its my favourite collection. I believe the other casino that has lot of colors apart from Golden Nuggets, will be Desert Inn. I have 3 pairs (3R & 4B) of sealed red and blue Desert Inn and personally seen other colors like Green and Gold on eBay before.

As for the Purple Carson City Nugget printed by Arrcco Playing Card Company, I do have one sealed. I can provide photos when I borrow a good camera from my friend. However that will only be the tuck box as all of my Vintage Casino Decks are sealed. I have the USPCC printed pair as well.

As for Golden Nugget, if I am not wrong I have all the colors less the first generation Purple & Orange as well as second generation Red (both the "Gambling Hall and Roaming House" and "Hotel and Casino"). Other than that I should be able to help out with the photos.

Having Dunes in the project will be great if possible. I too can provide the photos if you need them.

Hey iDoctor, I initially thought you are River Tsai because of the display picture you are using, as that photo was taken by him. Maybe can try seeking River Tsai's help when it comes to Vintage Casino Cards because he is very knowledgeable and have a wide range of decks (I used to ask him alot to understand more of Vintage Cards).

Sigh. I just remembered I never received these from the KS campaign. It's been well over a year now. Absolutely ridiculous.

Me too Fanofyankees. I guess the only way to receive those deck we pledged for is to purchase from him on his website now. And I am reluctant to do that because I don't want to feed him more of my money. Damn..

Hahah actually I have 3 sets now. Going to let go 2 of it. Sold 3 sets to one single guy before. So my collection is not amazing when compared to others. It's been long since I last update though.. :)

Oh damn. Would the buyer of the uncut pls stand up.

For a moment I thought JB was Jonathan Bayme.

Hi,

I am the buyer for this beautiful uncut. However, I have promised JB not to show any of the photos. But I will say this is definitely better looking than the normal Infinity cards. The gold on it is darker, more to a dark orange gold( if my descriptions makes sense :) ) I too gotten a lot of other one-of-kind and rare items. Gotta say JB is  a very nice guy. Thanks!
what other 1 of a kind items did u get?

The other one-of-a-kind that I gotten is a Gold Arcane uncut of King of Spade. That looks sexay if I frame it up! ;)
so its a gold arcane forcing deck? strictly no pics? Sharing is caring you know :)

Got no restriction on that. Feel free to take a look over at my fb page (ri hong), it comes with other rare uncuts too! :) (keeping hard to update though, hahah..)

Yep tried. Via fb and email. Didn't receive any reply from them. Anybody here can help me contact the personnel there? I tried contacting but no replies.

Yes, the court cards are missing their faces =) I find its kinda cool when you mix red with black for the backs. I am also guessing the price aint going to be cheap though.

Sorry for the small pic again. Thats the best I can find.

Another new pic:
