@FullSet + since these are fairly pricey and some hard to get, we can help on your breakdown so you get that sorted first.
In general, you likely don’t need 25c and 50c, and the $2 is fairly uncommon.
100 x 0.25 = $25
200 x $1 = $200
300 x $5 = $1500
80 x $25 = $2000
20 x $100 = $2000
700 chips with a total bank of $5,725. This would work for 0.25/0.5 up to 0.5/$1 games. Ideally you want around 5000x big blind as your bank. There’s lots of opinions here, but the above is a good start and you can choose to add/reduce from there. If you play $1/$2 or $2/$5 then drop the fracs and add more ‘workhorse’ $5s and top end.
What kind of stakes do you play today and what do you think you’d want to play in the future?

Here’s some new chips straight from the original seller (there are still some racks / barrels left of the different original sets):

Examples of all the completed sets are here:

Finally I’d recommend since there are so many Tiger chips, do you care what version or happy to mix and match?
Tigers come up fairly often, but you’ll likely need to buy by the rack as whole sets with your breakdown might not be available unless your lucky and someone reaches out with a set.
GL!
