This is Where We Post Our Favorite TRK $5 Chip(s) (1 Viewer)

[gopherblue]

Ok, fun-lovers. Have at it. I've been booted for trolling the (lesser) Paulson thread. Amateurs.

This is where you get to post your favorite TR King $5 chips. It need not be a chip you own or even from a full set--all that matters is that you like it.

I can see the thread already:
Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, something less obvious, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes, Mapes....

I'll start. Here's one of my favorite TRK $5's (I have exactly two of these...not even enough to shuffle):

Well not trk but better. I really like these.

You didn't expect people to follow the rules, did you?

[Weckedy]

Is this set that you own, or just showing your favorite TRK $5?

I wish I owned it, but regrettably just a favorite.

I'm almost certain those aren't TRK chips

Just making sure @gopherblue knows I'm an equal opportunity troll that doesn't discriminate.

I like my misprint more.

Its not a $5 chip ... but its supposed to be, so still okay for this thread?

Does anyone on here have a playable set of Large Crowns?

[bentax1978]

Someone's got to post this beauty

The front of OPs?

I saw 15 of the 25 $ denominations listed on eBay once , but have never seen the 5s in volume

Tough call!

I really like the inlay on the chip in my avatar, but those Desert Spa, Riverside, and Mapes chips are all pretty easy on the eyes.

 

[liftapint]

For me, it has got to be this one (at least out of the chips I own)

 

[liftapint]

This one isn't bad either (photo swiped from Internet--but I do have these...just haven't photographed them yet)

I am clearly in the minority, but I actually prefer the Money Tree $5 over the Mapes version:

These two make for some striking stacks:

The Rainbow Club line-up is strong from top to bottom, and the $5 is no exception:

Would love to stumble upon a rack of these in somebody's basement some day:

I have a playable stack of these...

I think @Psypher1000 has a set he rehabilitated from the dead...not sure.

Reviving this thread to post another favorite...

Asking this out of ignorance since I'm very new to PCF and chipping in general. Have never seen a TRK chip in real life.

Can someone explain to me the obsession/high prices of TRK chips?
