Wow it's weird to be here. Been out of the loop for a while so didn't realize that this site was going on (though I still am on CT). In any case I posted over there but didn't get any response so thought I'd ask here. Does anyone have any familiarity with these:

K.
The Laurel Crowns are standard 40g credit card sized plaques. You can also find them on
eBay for the same BIN price for five plaques with free shipping (five available denominations, plus matching 39mm chips, too).
I've always liked using the "Formal" plaques sold by HoldemPokerChips.com ($5.99 each) as high denominations for chip sets that need them. I have a set that has been used with several different chip sets over the years.
But I agree with a-toast -- it's pretty hard to beat the ultra-cool rounded-corner custom plaques sold by OWPS. Four sizes, great pricing, outstanding service, and they are simply crap-tons nicer than the thinner standard plaques in terms of quality, looks, and feel. Minimum order is 10 plaques (five per design), but well worth it, imo -- and you can match them exactly to your set if desired. You could probably split an order with somebody else here on PCF if you really only want five of a single design.
OWPS also sells a couple of different 'generic'
cc-sized plaques, too. I have a set of the dropa disc plaques, and they are very nice and reasonably-priced at $4.99 each.
