What is the value of a 1921 coin with the inscription epluribusunum and the city Las Vegas in the reverse?

Answer 1

It would seem that the coin you are referring to was not issued by the U.S. Mint. The phrase "E pluribus unum" is placed on all coins issued by the U.S. Mint. However, the city of Las Vegas is not on any U.S. coins, except maybe the new Nevada quarter? It may have been put on that coin, but I don't really know. But it would not be on any U.S. Mint coins issued in 1921. That would have to be a coin that was minted privately, and perhaps for a gambling casino or the City of Las Vegas in 1921 as a commercial incentive. It is fairly common for private mints to make coins that are not intended to be circulated as legal tender. In modern times, those coins tend to be made of 99.99% silver bullion, and their value rises and falls with the price of silver. Some companies and corporations have them minted as tokens they can use to reward employees for excellence on the job. Your coin may have been a souvenier for a casino to pass out, or perhaps a hotel token for visitors who stay there. I know of a corporation that owns hospitals that had pure silver bullion coins made to give its employees in celebration and recognition of 50 years of excellence and service to the public. Perhaps using a magnifier you can search the coin for more printed information that may help you find the issuing people/place in Las Vegas.
