Ceramics from The Palms (1 Viewer)

[Psypher1000]

Some early chips from The Palms in Las Vegas - 2001-2002 - seem to be just slightly larger in diameter than those issued after, as well as have a slightly granier surface texture than later models. Does anyone know if they switched vendors? Are they both Chipco's, and if so, did Chipco change their process/blanks around that time?

Usually it's an easy tell.

BG printed on the chip = Bourgogne and Grasset
CI printed on the chip = Chipco

Palms used both manufacturers.

I remember those. They are BG.

They had the face cards on them, Jack or 10 through Ace. Really nice ceramics.
