The case looks like those sold at the "Paulson" store back when they serviced the retail market.

My example of said case:

surely if it was real theyd be charging more for it?

Alright, I'm not yet an expert, so don't trust me completely.

Look like CPCs to me, from the brass flakes and fibres at edge. No longer available mold is Suits Mold?

 

[DrStrange]

Why would you think that? (dylan) those chips aren't the typical Top Hat & Cane. The mold is different enough that most buyers wouldn't know one way or the other. It will not surprise me at all for one of the more experienced members to ID these as vintage chips

They look like real Ewing mold chips to me.

Confirmed, matches CPCs website. Missed it when I looked for my post.

These are likely not made by CPC, probably ASM or Burt Co. or some other older company. That same Etsy profile has a nice MD-50 set for sale as well. Old chips.

Kinda crazy honestly. I thought these were probably the same ones that get asked about every so often.

I mean it’s a nice case and minty looking chips. Surprised it’s sat so long.

I was tempted to buy them a while back when I was buying tons of different things, but I just couldn't justify it and find a use case for them.

Price per chip is below current price of Ewing on CPCs website... before shipping factored.
