Casino Collectibles Association

Each year, club members nominate the chips/tokens, silver strikes, and slot cards/room keys that they feel are artistically the best that were produced during the year. Once all nominations are made, those members who made a nomination get to vote on their favorites. The winners are awarded the prestigious "Of The Year" (OTY) title and are presented to the club at the national convention.

Best “Of The Year” Online Voting is Now an Option

Now you can cast a ballot for your favorites online or via the existing email process. The deadline to submit votes is midnight CST on Wednesday, April 30th.

Three OTY Categories

• Chip of the Year (COTY)
• Silver Strike of the Year (SSOTY)
• Player’s Card/Room Key of the Year (CKOTY)
