The idea is to have a versatile set, which could be used either for tournament or small cash game purposes, with the denominations representing cents anyway.
The 5-25-100-500 progression seems ideal, with the 1,000 coming in basicallly for bigger (.25-.50) micro-cash purposes or for quite deep tournaments (T3,000 for 300 big blinds starting stacks). T2,000 would cost 20E to buy-in and T3,000 would cost 30E, just like in cash games.
Another major idea is to have 4 of the chips to represent the 4 seasons of the year in the mountainous village of Pesta, while the fifth chip (the hundo, in this case) should represent the stone-built houses and dark stone roofs, and the anyway ever-present element of stone in Epirus (let alone the dark scorpions and spiders).
The set would be Hot-Stamped for sure.
I do not want to go over-heretical, so I might stick to standard denomination colors, with the exception of the T1,000.
I did not stage the chips (in progression) according to the progression of year's seasons they were representing, in order to respect traditional colors representing values; with the sole exception of the T1,000 which is white, to represent Winter, under a clear cold sky.
Please tell me what you think. This is getting f@ckin urgent
