Challenge: Name Those Chips - Ocean’s Eleven (Celebrity Poker Game) (1 Viewer)

[charitycase]

I’m a fan of Ocean’s Eleven and I always love the back-room card game scene between incompetent celebrities.

I want the chips that they’re using in this scene, if they (i) exist and (ii) can be identified.

They used a lot of generic dice chips in their photo shoots. So who knows, these could be super inexpensive (wishful thinking).

Can any of you veteran chippers ID these beauties (or close lookalikes)?

Some kind of jetons? Looks like mother of pearl.

Look like ceramics with black print on them, some design.. to me.. I could be wrong..

They definitely look like ceramics, but without a closeup there's no way to get any more info.

Well now I feel better about my 'guess' of them being ceramics

Sounds like you need a set of chips from Oceans Eleven casino, in Oceanside, CA....

I believe I harvested a few some years ago:

5:30 looks jetons and not ceramics

Lightweight printed plastics is my guess, based on looks and how they act when tossed in the pot. Can't go by sound, that's dubbed in later.

Could be a jeton, but I think ceramic. Colored mold drops the plastic or clay probability to <1%.

You guys rock man

 

[Phyffe]

Was gonna say ceramics but the colors really want me to say Jetons too....

I'm going with Dave here. I think they are cheap plastic chips. The edges are too square for jetons. Ooh i am going to have to ask our Foley guy to see what he uses for poker chip sounds.

According to a man named Mark Vance (source), these are a few chips from the scene/set.
He was apparently childhood friends with a man named Steve Melton who served as the Prop Master for the film.
The 'RR' was apparently reflective of Brad Pitt's character, Rusty Ryan.
Cheap, customized plastic chips seems to be the final conclusion - Thanks everybody!

I would check with @UKcollector, he probably has some of the originals in stock
