1997 Harvey’s Lake Tahoe $10 Silver Strike – Bill Cosby – .999 Silver
This listing features a 1997 $10 Silver Strike gaming token issued by Harvey’s Resort Hotel & Casino in Lake Tahoe, Nevada—and yes, it prominently features Bill Cosby. The obverse bears Cosby’s portrait and name, presented without irony at the height of his mainstream popularity, while the reverse carries the Harvey’s logo and silver fineness designation. The token is a bimetallic issue with a .999 fine silver center set within a brass outer ring. Once fed into slot machines, it now survives as an unusual mix of precious metal, casino history, and pop-culture artifact that unmistakably reflects the era in which it was issued. Encapsulated.
