This is one of my favourites. I have one as a card capper.
I just love the bright spots, a very pretty chip!

It is.
Is that a christy and Mathews or whatever? (Non-Paulson THC?)

Edit: Jones? Why can I never remember the name of that company?

I dunno. Are you allergic to Bud Jones?

Not a chip I personally own, but I love the Aurora Star $5. Just does it for me. I love the cherry red base color a lot and it's simple but nice.

Love this chip! The Apache Poker recreation of this chip in 43 mm is a big reason I chose the Royal set to make a custom set with

Beautiful set! Is there one chip that stands above the rest?

I think most of you know my favorite chip. It became a chip that I had to have many of early, on in my chip-collecting days. It became even more of a passion after I lost my wife as it brought back some fond memories of my late wife who helped me harvest them when we were in Vegas. We would harvest both the birds and non-birds until I had a few racks in my collection.

It got to a point where I had many racks of both versions. At one time I had more than it shows in the spoiler pic!

The Whole Family of Spotted Birds and No Birds - Final Count 1481

I finally decided that all I really needed were the spotted with birds and I got rid of the non-bird chips. All I have left are "some" racks of spotted birds.

IMHO, the $2.5, the $4 and the $500

 

[surfik]

Do I really have to say why?

Maybe this one?

This breaks so many of my rules about what I like in chips, and yet I love it anyway.

Had to look it up but I think this is the Jack Detroit 1k… beautiful chip!

This:

Because:

And:

- the imperfection on the bottom spot
- the mold texture is wearing down around the edge (really noticable on the bottom spot)
- the color combo of retro lavender and black.

Because I from Paris and I love the eiffel tower house mold.
