Option 1 for me, and it's not close. With "PARK PLACE" & "ATLANTIC CITY" on the chip itself, the inlay works well with just the logo and denomination. Option 2 makes the chip look cluttered to me.
But, that's just, like, my opinion, man.
Another negative is with the additional text, the logo has to be shrunk down a little. I'm not buying these so not going to vote, but I agree with @cpac54 It's not close.Option 1 for me, and it's not close.

contrast and for the $100 keeps it two tone instead of being just blackSorry if i missed it, but why is the color matching on the logo not always the base color of the chip?
Edit: i guess its a contrast thing with the greyish inlay
Edit2: cant be only a contrast thing, the black from the $100 chip would be visible for the color matching
The text really ties the room togetherView attachment 689129
I voted 2 though. I feel like the lable can still work with the text without feeling cluttered. I like the muted, gray look.
Legit question: If Option 1 wins, are there really some of you who will pass because you think that design is too clean?All the people who voted for #1 are about to save me a bunch of money. So... Thanks?

Design preferences aside, if only one or the other was offered, I can see people balking at "America's Favorite Playground" for various reasons. But I'm not sure I understand someone seeing only Option 1 and thinking, "Oh man those are almost cool ... if they'd just put more stuff on the chip I'd be a buyer!"
Yes I understand. Was just trying to understand the reasoning behind it.@aggie Well seems like Option 2 won, but as implied, I was not a buyer with the other one (apart from the obvious sample set).
It goes without saying that everyone’s desires are different … one of us just wanted to talk about how they came to that conclusion. Not Buying is a pretty hard line in the sand.@aggie Sure, everyone has different needs and goals. I’ve been at this a long time, seen many GB’s and already own several high end plastic chip sets. I wasn’t thinking of getting another set, until I saw that version of the artwork with the black text.
If my pick doesn't win, I am still getting a set. Anyone who thinks otherwise should remember that Gear labels exists.
Every time we play cash almost no one carrying extra $5s when buying in, almost always $20s only. When all the $5s run out obviously Then I have to get change from someone at the table. $20s are just easier in my gamesCurious why most people typically have a split between $20 and $25? I understand $25 is often for tourneys but also have seen a lot of $25 in cash sets
couldn't you just cash up some of the $5s into $25 or $100s to free up $5s if people only want to buy in for $20?Every time we play cash almost no one carrying extra $5s when buying in, almost always $20s only.

Yes that is a must if all $5s are out, it’s just less of a hassle to have $20s vs $25s..everyone goes to the atm to pull out all $20s so when we get deep we have all 2 racks of $5s out there (my game) and if you want to rebuy I need to make change, it is not that big a deal I just prefer $20s.. moral of story get more racks of $5s (for my game)couldn't you just cash up some of the $5s into $25 or $100s to free up $5s if people only want to buy in for $20?
