Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Who was T. R. King or what does it stand for?

A. The TR stands for Teddy Roosevelt and the King part is for the crown style molds they used for their chips.

Q. What chip molds did they produce?

A. TR King is probably best known for their 'small crown' (aka scrown) and their large crown (lcrown) molds. In the early days they used the 'Square-Square-Rectangle' and the 'Chain' molds. They also made the 'GN' house mold for chip issues 6 through 12, excluding the 10th, for the Golden Nugget Casino in Las Vegas.

Q. What year did TR King start?

A. It depends who you ask! The original trking.com website says they started business in 1922 but their chip boxes say 1924. There are also sources that claim 1923 was the first year and a few that say 1925 was when it all started.
