Lee thanks for the information. What other strikes had the .999 silver on the rim after the 1997 date? We still do not have a time when they had to make the changeover. I remember reading about it in the newsletter but I can't remember who it was that sent the strike to the Nevada gaming commission and got it changed and what date that was. It would be good for everyone to know. Thanks from Ted and Sharon Pamperin SS170 and ss171. Have a great Easter.
