The E-Sylum: Volume 6, Number 33, August 17, 2003, Article 14 CASINO SLOT MACHINES Greg Heim writes: "Regarding the article on coinless EZPAY and FASTPAY casinos which use tickets: One of these casinos is the newly opened Borgata in Atlantic City, NJ. It should be noted that despite the fact they are coinless, coins and tokens are still placed in the hoppers in case of a system failure. In the case of the Borgata, only tokens of $10 and above can be purchased from the cashiers. That makes the $1, $2, and $5 tokens quite collectible because you cannot feed in money into a slot and cash out. If you collect these, your best bet is to ask at the change booth for any loose ones. Chances are they will say no, but in several instances, I have obtained about $12 face value. Lastly, as a frequent casino patron, I love the fact that the tickets come out. It saves on down time. From a numismatic standpoint, however it stinks." Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
