Any help Identifying these chips (1 Viewer)

It’s a bit difficult as the picture quality is a bit low. But it’s got the JP monogram. I’ll try to get better pics. Thanks!

ASM chips (previously CPC) I believe. Roman mold.

Whats the breakdown?


Edit to add from Eisenstadts page. MD-89:

"ROMAN (a/k/a ROMAN BORDER, and WEAVE; "Roman" or "Roman border" --not "weave"-- is preferred by Atlantic Molding, the owner of the mold) -- 24 weave designs. 1950's?-present. I have seen the mold in a H. Baron Co., NYC, 1958 catalog. There they described it as their "Non-Duplicate Monogrammed Crap Check." Eventually Bill Borland (World-Wide Casino Exchange, Las Vegas NV) used the mold, but never for Nevada casinos. It was used by Penn Specialty Co., The Poker Store, Stanton CA, and is used today by Atlantic Standard Molding, Portland ME., which has owned it since about 1990, till 2013-14 when Classic Poker Chips company took over Atlantic Standard. Classic Poker Chips owns the mold but is not using it at present. .......The chip on the left is for sale here, in both yellow and dark blue. It is unattributed."

@Marius L I'm not sure yet. I'm waiting on more pics and info. Any idea on a fair price???

@Marius L never mind on that request. I followed the link you posted and figured it out. Thanks for your help on this!

The link to that page do not show what they are worth though, IMO. I would say you should not pay more than something like 20c/chip for these, or probably less if your goal is to resell at a profit. If you want a set of vintage clays for yourself and the breakdown makes sense you might think its worth it for more. Its a mold that many people like, but solid colored chips with random letters on them are not super attractive.

Thanks Marius! Feel like I grow smarter every time I post for help.

They might be worth more to someone who plans to transform them. Roman mold in good condition doesn't come up every day, and some enterprising chipper may want to mill them.
