Golden Nugget
Originally built in 1946, the Golden Nugget Casino is one of the oldest in Las Vegas. In 1950 Hermon Boernge, art director from the Sin City, designed an iconic sign for the Gambling House. The artwork then would be used on the backs of the legendary Golden Nugget playing cards.
There are nine types of Golden Nugget decks, produced from early 60s to late 80s in a wide variety of colors. Black, red, green, purple and orange are some worthy of note. To prevent cheats from smuggling those to the casinos back in the day, a vast majority of used Golden Nuggets (available now on the secondary market) were cancelled: corners were cut or a hole has been drilled through the whole deck. Finding a listing of an uncancelled and unopened deck on eBay for a decent price is as scarce as hen's teeth. Despite going for slightly less than raved Jerry's Nuggets, their price is constantly growing.
We have only a few Golden Nuggets (2nd-3rd run from 1970s) available in our shop, culled exclusively from our private reserve. There's no cellophane on the decks and the seal might be misplaced or damaged due to natural aging process (see the red deck tuck case in our gallery for reference). However, all decks are unopened and in mint condition.
