I need a rack of these in my life. Any idea how many are out there?Artichoke Joe's has nickles and dime hotstamps. I bought a rack of the nickles from spinetties recently. They're fantastic.

Not sure you can ask the guys at spinetties. I know of at least 3.I need a rack of these in my life. Any idea how many are out there?
Yes, I seen they have them at some crazy $6 a chip, so $600 for a rack. Their prices are a bit high IMO, like maybe double. No idea of the actual condition either.Not sure you can ask the guys at spinetties. I know of at least 3.
I have to echo the Artichoke Joe’s, they’re stunning in person and definitely less than $6/chip.

They may be on the high end but they are a retail store after all. Always call them or email them to get their bulk pricing if looking to order a rack also. They always offer discounts off of the singles pricing (if their quantities support it).Yes, I seen they have them at some crazy $6 a chip, so $600 for a rack.

Yeah I think my rack of nickles from them was $400 which I thought was fair for good condition spotted hotstamp nickles.They may be on the high end but they are a retail store after all.

I did contact them. Asked them if I could see a picture and if any were warped. Just waiting to hear backYeah I think my rack of nickles from them was $400 which I thought was fair for good condition spotted hotstamp nickles.
Were any of yours warped at all?Yeah I think my rack of nickles from them was $400 which I thought was fair for good condition spotted hotstamp nickles.
Nope, excellent condition.Were any of yours warped at all?
Thank you, that's what I like to hear. If the ones they show me are in that condition I'm gonna pull the trigger. I needs the nickels haha!Nope, excellent condition.
When you consider average hot stamp casino used fracs run $250 - $300 for $.25 or $.50 per rack.... how many casinos ever made Nickles? Maybe 25 - 30... how many are spotted? Hmm one comes to mind. In playable quantities?? Before I knew how many actually existed I probably would have gone way higher than $6 a chip (I bought several of their singles foe that price) to get enough together to maybe one day have them playable!Yeah I think my rack of nickles from them was $400 which I thought was fair for good condition spotted hotstamp nickles.
I agree, I snap bought at $400 a rack cause I thought it was a great price.When you consider average hot stamp casino used fracs run $250 - $300 for $.25 or $.50 per rack.... how many casinos ever made Nickles?

I definitely don't think $400 a rack is not resonable... but what the heck do I know.
I seen your avatar. Love it hahahaha!Well I mean... I like them too! @Lil Tuna had this made for my last birthday!

Just more proof of how truly awesome this community truly is! I can't stress it enough, if you are in an area with other members. Or even drivable distance, go splash pots and talk about chips. You will not regret it!!I seen your avatar. Love it hahahaha!
Thank you very much for the suggestion. I went ahead and ordered a rack. Might be a few that have slight warping, unfortunately. I'm hoping for the best.Yeah I think my rack of nickles from them was $400 which I thought was fair for good condition spotted hotstamp nickles.
Lol yeah I bought one of those to use as a card capper. It's hilarious.I can't believe they actually had a 1c spotted chip as well, that's crazy... and cool as hell.
The idea applies the same as a real penny does; it costs more to manufacture than it's designated worthI can't believe they actually had a 1c spotted chip as well, that's crazy... and cool as hell.
Yup, pennies are just awful in general lol.The idea applies the same as a real penny does; it costs more to manufacture than it's designated worth
What's wrong with using a non denom set? I lean towards definitely preferring denoms but absolutely nothing wrong if that's what you have,
my problem with that would be people asking constantly which one is which after 2 hours of playing!! Or ohh I didn't mean to bet that much shenanigans.
I'm a new Chipper and want to get some micro games started in the new year. I was looking for a 600ct set like this. What do these range around? I do live in Canada, so exchange rate hurts sometimes and shipping.
