Oh maaaan! My tourney set uses a 2 sided inlay design. Guess I better go back and check them one at a time for any special editions

Wow - the $25 actually got two switched spots

I am aware of a few error numismatics, is there anyone here who does the same for chips?

Hmm - Interesting... never seen this before - guess this is an actual Paris Frac.?

Not an error in so much as label or edge spots, but I thought this was cool. Looks like it was partially pressed two times.

If Super Diamonds weren’t the bomb, I’d say that B mold would be a much better fit.

I sure did! I was desperate for orange diamond mold. (Fantasy set coming 2026!)

These ones were a genuine factory error which made it right through to the casino floor.
A couple exist $25 each side also.

Hello David,
Thank you for the update. Yes, I have looked for the $25 both sides variety for many years,....with no luck. It is interesting that this chip saw years of play without ever being recognized. This chip might have been tough for the accounting department if someone asked for it to be cashed at $25 dollars.

I'm pretty sure I had just the one which I seem to recall I auctioned probably 15 years ago but I do still have some odd chips in my error collection so I'll check just in case.

How is this even possible?
Don‘t they cut all 4 spots at the same time?!

The only chip (yellow) I’ve noticed of this in my ~480 chips I received and it was in the first photo I took

Odawa Hotel & Casino in Petosky MI - 50 cent casino chip that equals 1/2 cent. Obsolete - taken off the tables in 2014 shortly after issued - the casino realized that the chip value equals 1/2 cent - definitely in error. The chip value is .50¢, when it should have been $.50 or 50¢ with no decimal. Giving it the moniker "The Nano Chip" for nano stakes - with a value of 1/2 cent. The casino now uses "Kennedy" half dollars.

I would have easily overpaid the casino $50 a rack to remove every single last error chip from the premises.
