Thank you, honestly now that you said it was a scroll ceramic makes sense. I had gone right past those on all the sites I have browsed because I didn’t care for the looks.
Easy way to check if it is plastic other than sound/feel? It for sure looks like a recreation of some kind.
Thanks, I hadn’t even stumbled on Nevada Gaming Chip or RT plastic yet. This rabbit hole of poker chips is very deep.
100% plastic. Some type of commemorative like the Dunes commemoratives.
So the Dunes listed on Apache are plastic/clay composite or are those different ones that are only clay?
I believe that Apache sells two different versions of the dunes chips. China "clay" are closer to plastic than they are clay. They are extremely cheap, and feel nothing like a real clay chip.
Correct, these are basically china clays.
If it's more than 7 or 8 grams, you can try a magnet to see 8f there's a metal slug inside.
You can also look for the injection dimple.
Oh I don’t disregard them at all, just the scroll specific set. I am pretty sure I’m set on a semi custom set DDLM set. And honestly out of the ones I posted right now the best feeling one is F chip. Would love to find out who made that one.
Those are also ceramics, apparently made by Huxley:
Thank you so much for doing all that looking around! Too bad after following the posts they seem to be rather limited in custom designs. The one I have feels very nice in hand.
Why do you say go 43mm? (Other than the size)
I'll be honest, I'm a bit of a 43mm fanboy. I just absolutely love the larger size. However, especially for DDLMs, the artwork is so beautiful, that it just brings the chips to a completely new level to have it on a 4mm larger area.
Uh oh...I better stay away from 43mm, I may fall in love.
Well that set of icons makes me green with jealously for sure!Ok let me try here
D and H are Claysmith 13.5 gram slugged plastic. D is on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Claysmith-Ga...=9005554&hvtargid=pla-349602119890&psc=1&th=1 and H is on AGS https://www.americangamingsupply.co...QqgHUFM6wFmiPmLU_Q4IywqtybFfdVARoCygwQAvD_BwE
F is the infamous Kash Casino Icon Ceramic. I got a set of 2000 of those.
I is a Scroll ceramic. Tons of people sell those. https://www.amazon.com/Brybelly-Scr...=9005554&hvtargid=pla-307257709576&psc=1&th=1
I gotta draw the line somewhere! This is my first set of real chips and I can’t bring myself to do a buck a chip right now on custom 43s. But I do not doubt they are gorgeous on it.
I have already planned out my next purchase, I want to get this set of DDLM cash and then catch a group buy of Tina ceramics for a tournament set. This place is great!
They don't come up for sale often, but when they do they range between 25¢-35¢ per chip. I got that set here at an auction for $500.
I get it, I was once like you too. And I still kind of am. I can't drop $500 on one rack of chips. But I've also come to learn that a slight increase in cost pays for itself over the years and years of enjoyment.
A. 9.5g injection-molded plastic with adhesive label, no metal insert. Similar in construction and materials to thecNexGen Pro line of chips and a dozen other alternative-mold plastic clones, including the 9g Dunes Commemorative and Desert Palms chips. Not to be confused with China clay chips, which typically weigh about 10g and are more fragile.
Well thank you so much! Came in swinging with the answers. Now to find more SAMPLES!
