CPC add on thoughts (1 Viewer)

[MeridianFC]

With the very real possibility that CPC may close its doors I've been thinking about doing one final add-on. I have some one dollar chips (Chocolate 3D14 Yellow/Mandarin Red) I had made way back in the ASM days when they first opened up a limited number of edge spot patterns (other than the 312 they had previously only allowed). In a discussion elsewhere, I noted how these really didn't fit smoothly in my existing set. But I love them so I was thinking of a way to try and crowbar them in to a "B" set that works with existing chips.

Current set (.25/$1/$5/$25/$100):

I think a new $5 is the way to go:

Thoughts?

FWIW here are the actual sets/chips:

Change the background color in the mockup tool to gray first. Then consider the changes.

But otherwise, IMO, wouldn't change a thing.

This +1

LOL... you made me drink the "gray background kool-aide" a while back.

@RainmanTrail is the OG, I'm only spreading the gospel

They look so good, congratulations! Waiting to see the final design

Updated the mock ups to Gray background.

Yellow base $5 better than blue

I'll chew on that for a while.

Hundo is a bit simplistic compared to the other spots. I'm not a fan of tri-moons generally. Not my call tho.

How would someone go about acquiring a sample set of these OGs?

what is the general etiquette with add ons? obviously CPC under new ownership now so any previous approach should not be assumed going forward but I would probably look to order another barrel of each denom i have if there was an option - i get the feeling it's down to discretion ultimately but if you paid a fee for the convenience of producing less is that ok?

Obviously, I have no idea what the new ownership would do. I think I asked to Add On under the minimum (300) and was allowed to do so (200 iirc). I know some people will try and tag a barrel ot two onto someone else's order on the same mold which is I think how most people got away with orders that small. It is a whole lot of work for them to tool up for just a barrel.
