This is my first Wanted post on this forum!

This ebay listing shows what I'm looking for.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/205782957708

Don't care about color.

I'm looking for these not to play with but to use for decor, championship tokens, chip art.

I have no idea what a reasonable price per chip is though i think the ebay seller is overvaluing by a lot. I guess I will find out one way or another.

Thanks

Those are very early chips circa late 1800s to early 1900s.
Not worth much and the seller has obviously inflated the price.
BTW, they do tend to chip and break pretty easily.
You can often find similar chips at flea markets, "antique" malls, etc., but my guess (given your screen name and avatar) that you want the beehives.

There is also an engraved version from the 1920s-1940s that may be easier to find and more plentiful.
These later ones have an early plastic composited with the 'clay' so they are much more sturdy.

Good luck on your search!
