I recently black lit my dunes chips and it was cool to see the security features in the chip i would like to know what are some other cool examples of security features does any one have anything crazy like say RFID chips or anything like that

The Jack chips (plus many others I'm sure) have UV ink that says "PAULSON" and sometimes a big hat and cane. Microdots are popular, usually seen on chips with $100 cash value or higher.

Luxor Chipcos had this security feature. I have the chip, but not a black light. So, here is a picture courtesy of Spinettis'.

@Thomacetti it never occurred to me that metal flakes were a security feature! I just thought they added weight/sparkle.

The IoC $25s have the flakes, and I'm surprised they used it in such a low denomination chip.

I dont think the metal flake is a security feature. All the others are really cool. I've never looked at any of my casino chips under a blacklight

Be careful if you shine black light on HSI secondary 25s. The shine is blindingly bright.

Metal flakes and UV reactive colors are both a security feature as well as a design element.

Security feature in the sense that it's harder to paint a lower value legitimate chip to make it look like a different (higher) denom. The look of metal flakes is hard to emulate with simply painting over, and UV reactive colors might even shine through a thin layer of paint. The lack of UV reactive colors for a denom that should have them is also telling.
