$1 Sonoma Inn
This is 1965 $1 Sonoma Inn token. The information below was taken from the Platinum Collection provided by Howard Hertz in 2005. "The Sonoma Inn in Winnemucca, Nevada ordered gaming tokens from Osborne Coinage in 1965. Although the mint would ordinarily make at least 25 samples for there customers to test their size in the slot machines, only three examples of the rare token are known. Even the records of the mint indicate that a small number were made. Only three tokens are in current collections, including the Platinum Collection." Now there are four known examples of this token. What makes this token unique and extremely rare is that it has been cancelled with the void mark in the lower right rim. This is the only known example of a cancelled 1965 $1 Sonoma Inn Token. This is a must for the serious high end collectors out there that want to make their collection complete! The asking price is $3000.00. Or make an offer. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
