Ted Binion, the controversial former casino owner who met an untimely and mysterious death, made his larger-than-life reputation as a businessman in Nevada. Building on his father's start, he helped develop Binion's Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas into an internationally recognized brand. His coins were kept in a secret underground vault in the Nevada desert.

The Binion coins were authenticated and certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), one of the nation's leading independent facilities for the inspection, authentication and grading of collector and investor coins. At the completion of their process, NGC sealed each silver dollar into a tamperproof plastic holder showing the coin's year and mint of issue, plus the coin's grade. A coin's grade is important because it is the primary determinant of the coin's market value.

Mark Salzberg, President of NGC, said, "This is the greatest collection of silver dollars that NGC has ever authenticated."

 

The item / autograph(s) has been authenticated and encapsulated by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) for authenticity purposes.
