I have most of the major stip hotels already with a few smaller casinos as well.
Does anyone know of any other new additions worth adding? Or any smaller casinos that have nice $1 chips? Does the Hard Rock have a $1 chip?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Clayton, I think you will find a lot of helpful information in this Forum.
In addition to what has already been posted to your message, I'll add:
New chips:
Stardust
Caesars Palace (in poker room) (Note: the new $1's are very similar to old $1's, but they are different; same with the $5's.)
Aladdin (Planet Hollywood) two versions of $1's.
Boulder Station
Binion's (downtown)
El Cortez (downtown)
The Orleans ("2005" issue)
South Coast (all new)
Not sure when you'll be there, but Red Rosck Station opens in mid April.
The Hard Rock does not and never did have $1 chips. They instead had a $1 metal token; 2 versions if I recall correctly. Keep an eye on the Monte Carlo, Mandalay Bay and Circus Circus, as two of the past Mandalay Resorts casinos (Luxor and Excalibur) have changed chips since they were bought by MGM/Mirage.
Please feel free to scan some of those 40 chips you have and post them here for us to see!
