If Las Vegas ever prints its own currency, what will it look like?

Las Vegas Currency

As the economy gets suckier and suckier, more communities across the country are discovering the trend of printing their own money, which residents purchase for a discount and use at participating merchants in that area (the most recent city to participate is Detroit, which created the Detroit Cheers).
