(I honestly have considered this as a custom more than a couple times, mostly to mess with the players in my game.)
 
When I built my Pharaoh China clay set, I included a .05 and a .25, but I also included a NCV just in case a special situation popped up. I have not regretted it.

No. That's a label I'd had designed for some chips as a gag, because my buddy jim loves to bet $1.75 in my .25/.50 game. I'm surprised to see it on somebody elses chips.

I'd love to hear more of the story here. How many did you make? Did you actually give him a stack of them when he bought in? Did you keep them in play?

I’d love to tell you a story, but there isn’t one. I had a barrel of them made and my intention was to give him maybe four in his starting stack. But my game was sporadic and then Covid happened so I wasn’t hosting at all, and I eventually ended up selling off all the chips, including that barrel. So I never put any of the pictured chips into play. Sad.

Funny postscript though - I auctioned them off, a local PCfer bought them, and he’s since become part of my game. So now when I host, we have Jim, we have the guy who bought the Jim chips (which I’m sure he re-murdered,) we just don’t have the Jim Bet chips.

Sounds like you're not good at playing the long game. I could never sell something like that until I had the chance to play the gag. Not after putting in the effort to create the chips.

BTW, great lineup!

Yeah I have no patience. Especially when it comes to valuable chips that aren’t being used. (That Jim Bet barrel sold for $286.)
