Description:

This collectible chip card is a promotional $1 stored value phone card issued by U.S. West Communications in 1999. It features a white background with black text prominently displaying "U S WEST" near the top left. Below that, the words "COMP. MILLENNIUM PHONE" are printed in a bold, modern font. At the bottom right corner of the card, "$1" is visible, indicating its stored value. The card includes a gold-colored chip embedded on the left side, representing its technology as a stored memory smart card rather than a sticker.

The card highlights the millennium theme, emphasizing its use for payphone service under the label "SVC," which relates to U.S. West's telecommunications services. The design is simple and clean with no additional images or graphics on the front aside from the text and chip. The card is printed with actual printing on the plastic surface, not a sticker. This piece is a reprint sample from 1999, created to commemorate or promote U.S. West's phone services during the millennium period.

This chip card is part of collectible phone cards featuring telephones, phones on phonecards, and payphone services. It is a genuine promotional item created by G&D Chip technology for stored memory use, representing a milestone in telecommunications marketing at the time while offering a stored value of one dollar. The card is an example of late 20th-century smart card design linked to U.S. West's network infrastructure before telecommunications consolidations.

Since we have the world's largest inventory of USA phonecards for collectors, you will not necessarily receive the identical serial/batch/PIN number that we have scanned/pictured.
