OK, I traded for another rack of $1s, so I now have one more set left of the old school leaded Cali colored Crystal Park chips that I can offer. 460 chips total. This is my last set for sale. The breakdown is below. The $100s are 43mm (these are tough to find as they are pretty rare). All other denoms are 39mm. You have two options for the $5s: dirty or cleaned & oiled (they're in the same condition otherwise). All other denoms have been cleaned/oiled. The prices are listed below for each option. Chip racks are not included.

460 chips total
100x $1s
300x $5s
40x $25s
20x $100s

Pricing is as follows:
$1350 + shipping if you choose the dirty $5s
$1425 + shipping if you choose the cleaned/oiled $5s

I also have additional racks of $5s available for $200 per rack if you'd like to add more $5s. I do not have any more of the other denoms though.

Thanks, basically light, circular motion with soft-bristle toothbrush and liberal amount of Gojo for about 20-30 seconds per side of each chip. I also presoaked the chips an hour or more in warm water with a bit of liquid soap.
 
Those lovely pumice scrubbing particles are what actually removes the grime. Those particles are tiny and breakdown very quickly/easily as they clean.

"...for cleaning a broad range of industrial soils" - love it!

In all the years I’ve seen these chips I always thought it was a 312 spot. Seeing you cleaned chips I now realize it is 3d14 :wow:

Me too. I always thought they were 312 black spots before, but they're 3d14 black & gray or charcoal. They're pretty cool looking all cleaned up, I think.

I bought two racks of $5s offered in another thread. They cleaned up pretty well after a quick ultrasonic. Perhaps they needed a little longer bath. I will try using a magic eraser on the edges and then apply a little oil.

How long did you leave them in for, and what cleaning agent were you using? I'd be giving them another go if I were you. I did about 1 minute and 45 seconds in the ultrasonic with about 3 heaping teaspoons of Lundmark TSP in my 3 quart ultrasonic, using the salad spinner basket approach. No scrubbing required. They came out perfect.

I used Lundmark TSP; however, for only about a minute. Your chips did come out great. I'll try again. I first need to buy more distilled water.
 
Those came out great. I might have to try some Gojo in the future too. Especially for smaller batches when I don't want to break out the ultrasonic.
Thanks. I'm thinking that a barrel or two is reasonable to clean by hand, but the entire rack was some serious work. I kept thinking that the $25 extra for a clean rack would have been well worth it!

BTW, one of my sons immediately commented "I like the gray spots". So not only can you see the gray spots when cleaned, they are appealing.

Haha, absolutely me too. Just realized the other day seing @RainmanTrails photos. Even had a sample of these in my hands, and still didn't notice.

Now I'm even more confused though, as one of the spots on the inlay looks brown to me?

The spots don’t match the inlay colors until you oil them. Just cleaned and a bit dried out and the edge spots are lighter than the inlay faux edge spots.
