Help me build a hot stamp set around these Town Tavern 1's (1 Viewer)

[Beakertwang]

Just got 2 racks of these from The Chip Exchange. Used, but still square corners. Looking for hot stamped quarters and 5's to go with them, and looking for ideas.

Requirements:

• THC
• comparable condition, not mint, no bicycle tires
• Reasonably priced, as close to $1/chip as possible (I'm realistic about this)
• Home game, casino, fantasy, illegal cardroom, etc. all ok
• Solid hot stamped quarters, color may be dependent on whether I find red or yellow 5's
• Spotted hot stamped 5's, red or yellows

Tropicana / West World

Ramada Cardroom 5s
Trop 5s
West World 5 if not too mint

Yellow quarters might be tough, but doable if resourceful lol

Love this idea and I really like the Town Taverns. Nice pick up.
Good luck

Ok, thinking about this (working on the 20’s ). Just need some fracs to go with them. Feel like I missed out on those red quarters a short while ago.

Maybe white quarters?

Lakeshore Inn quarters?

Lakeshore Inn quarters?

That would be cool, but a bit out of my desired price range.

 

[Beakertwang]

How about some green NCV 25’s for quarters?

What do those Town Taverns look like all cleaned up?

Spinetti's has a rack of yellow half-dollars right now for five bills. I bet you could get them for four.
There are actually a lot of great condition yellow quarters out there, but when you find them, they'll be expensive.

Edit - sorry, I didn't see your pricing reqirements. I think realistically you're looking at two bucks apiece minimum for any hot stamp fracs in great condition. Maybe a buck and a half in good condition. Maybe consider starbursts?

Unfortunately that is likely the only way to stay close to the budget!! I dont know any HS THC quarters for less than $2 a chip... maybe out there but not common. The green on those NCV looks like it will pair well with your $1s also!!

I definitely want quarters. We play 5¢/10¢, but I’m starting to build a group who would prefer to play a bit bigger, so we’ll try .25/.25.

I even debated buying those!! Fantastic price... but no use for red fracs at the time! Someone basically stole those!! Excellent find!
