How Long Are Casino Chips Good For?
Level Contributor 35 posts Do casino chips expire? 10 years ago We haven’t been to Vegas in 4 years, but are going next week for New Year’s. Excited!! I came across some chips from Mandalay Bay from our last trip that due to some circumstances we were unable to use. Can I use them this trip? $50 worth would be a nice bonus start.

Re: Do casino chips expire? 10 years ago As far as I know, the chips retain their value – until the casino shuts down. Report inappropriate content Level Contributor 23 posts 2.

Re: Do casino chips expire? 10 years ago Be sure none of them are special event tokes as they may have more value than the chip itself. I have quite a few $5 chips that are collectors items and are worth far mar than five bucks.

Re: Do casino chips expire? 10 years ago Every now and then casino’s will redesign their chips, making the old ones worthless. They usually have a 60 – 90 day exchange period. This generally happens mainly to the high denomination chips when theft/fraud/counterfeits are suspected or confirmed (think the Bellagio bandit).

Re: Do casino chips expire? 10 years ago Next time you are playing at a casino, take the time to look at some of the chips. Some of them even have dates on them. I have seen some going all the way back to the early 2000s in some of the casinos. I don’t think you will have any problem using those chips.
