996 DIECAR (dice and cards mold) clay chips by Bud Jones from back in the day.
I believe they were produced by Burt Co and sold by BJ

400 White
298 Red
298 Black

Very minty chips! I found 3 that were damaged in shipping. They are in the last picture.

$650 $500 $460 $440 $400 $360 + shipping

EDIT: If I can get 3 or 4 racks accounted for, I'll sell them by the rack.
$50/rack + actual shipping.

It looks like the chips are painted and not actually stamped down into the chip, is that the case? If so, the paint can be easily removed and these could be stamped by @AK Chip once he gets his stamping machine up and running.

They are very, very shallow stamps.
 
They look like ASM clay chips..
Why are you saying these are Bad Jones chips?
The case they came in looks like it's from the 70s, with the locking metal clasp in the center and fully wooden rows. Looks a lot older than the 90s which is when the mold was sold to asm, so I figured they were bud Jones era diecar.

@BGinGA any way to tell the difference between bj and asm/cpc diecar chips?
 
Bud Jones had the mold done for the Diecar and the Nevada Mold.
Correct, sometime circa 1965-1970.

Not on solids afaik, short of having access to Burt Co. (pre-1986), ASM, or CPC sales records. However, I didn't think ASM made diecar chips, at least not right after Blancard bought the assets in 1988 and started ASM. I'd have to research/confirm when the mold was first used again.

I suspect the chips in question are Burt-produced.
