Part Six of my Design Study of the most interesting Casino Sets.

In general, I really like these chips. The inlays are inoffensive, but I don't feel that they are that special (which is fine). My main quibble is with the $1. The green spot really feels off to me. I wish that chip was a little different.

I looove the $3 though. I like the pastel colors.
$5, $20, and $25 are all nice too.
And the $100,000. I love how it looks like big gold coin.

If I were changing this set, I might do the $1 something like one of these:

I'm curious what other people think!
 
It's all subjective. My opinion is that it's a boring house mold, I don't like dark inlays, and the 418 spot pattern is weak for a $5 in general and totally unimpressive following that nice tri-moon $1. Spot pattern on the $25 is pretty weak too.
 
The $20 crushes the $25.

I personally like the colors of the $1. I would never have chosen them. But that’s part of what makes the combination interesting to me.
I think it helps set up the somewhat subdued palette of the main 1, 5, 25, 100 lineup.

One of my favorite sets when I first started chipping.
 
This set is a favorite of mine. I really like the $3, $20 and $100. I am not a fan of the Las Vegas at the top of the chip. It feels unbalanced to me. All of the colors pop except for the $5 and $25.
