Are these good quality? (1 Viewer)

I’m trying to decideif I want these and I’m just wondering if they are the same quality as Paulson. I’ve never seen this design before. Any help is appreciated

Injection molded faux Paulson cheap chips. Tell tale sign is the mold missing the cane. Note the injection point - circular indentation in the bottom right hat.

Whoa - I think I just stepped into the mirror universe. Where did you find those?

Known fakes.... No dice!

THANK YOU!

Yes. But are they quality plastic chips? Do they stack? What do they weigh? What do they sound like?

I have seen many of these on eBay, low quality and I definitely wouldn't invest in them... I mean if that is what you can afford.. many here probably still have dice chips.. I would personally rank these below Dice chips but above Bicycle interlocking plastic.

I have not felt them but guessing not even slugged.

I think Monte Carlos or general slugged chips are a step up from here!

Best of luck on the hunt!!

Actual coins are better than these. I’d rather stack dimes 25 high than these.

if you can't afford ceramics or china clays and have to stay around .15/chip get one of the claysmith chip s like the showdowns.

if you can afford the .30/chip get in on the card mold ceramic group buy

In defense of these chips:

They feel OK. A little "rough" and "soft", like a Paulson. They feel more like a China Clay than a Dice chip.

They actually weigh about 6.2 grams each. Downside is they weigh about 6.2g each.

They are hotstampable (but not enough recess for a sticker). - Milling anyone?

They are widely available and cheap. Downside is they have a top hat, so eBay sellers sometimes want big bucks.

Colours are set and limited. I've only ever seen the classic colour combo of Red, White, and Blue. They may, however, be receptive to dyeing.

I guess you could mill them, but to pay $.20-.30 per chip to label them seems like a waste.
