Matsui going to print (1 Viewer)

[Roslindale]

I'm about to make the payment to get these printed.
Any thoughts before I pull the trigger tomorrow?

Getting 300 pieces to go with my Shandowa set of $1's, $5's, and $25's. (Bud Jones Coin Inlay)

Can we see the other chips with it?

 

[Okku]

Or did he mean to put Shenandoah? That could be the correct word instead of Shandowa.

 

[TheDuke]

Very cool. I don't think I've ever seen a custom cic chip.

Can you share details about cost?

based on OPs display pic I think so

 

[markleteenie]

Is this a metallic print inlay or a custom CIC?

 

[Roslindale]

Can you share details about cost?

$1.10 per chip
$215set up fee
$190 freight
$735 total /300 =$2.45 per chip

I’m confused by how Boston & Mass are split up. The 25¢ seems crowded by Mass. I like the concept & design.

I agree with the spacing issue. I was told they couldn't adjust because of set up somehow.

I might send it back for one last look,with MASS under Boston...

It's been back and forth at least 5 times.. hopefully they don't get upset.

After your thoughts, I updated with the attached.

I think I'll place the order tomorrow with the updated version.

You used the magic word… “think,” which implies <100% conviction.

Taking a fresh look-

Have you tried dropping Mass? The CICs you show only have Las Vegas. We can all agree there’s only one real Boston, right?

Matsui will forgive you.

Thank you Mr.Warma for the input. Much appreciated!

I have gone back and forth on this. The big thing I would like is to have the 25c centered. Unfortunately, I've been told that can't be done. With this in mind, I expect to go with the MASS under the 25c.

I did consider without MASS.
I decided to go with for a couple of reasons.
1. I think it gives it more of a townie feel.
2. It matches slightly better with the Shenandoah with the more lettering.

I will sleep on this and place an order tomorrow. ( I wouldn't be surprised if my mind changes with a fresh sleep)

Hi @Roslindale - just wondering how much you will end up paying per chip for this Matsui order?

Going without the MASS seem better than the other 2 option that is shown here with MASS

Looking good for a 25c CIC

Final proofs in..

Choice 1:
No MASS

Choice 2:
MASS under Boston

Choice 3:
MASS under 25c

 

[warma]

Final? Like, no room to see what a larger G’s with Boston under the 25 looks like, final?

 

[chipinla]

Capitalize everything… IMO

 

[Roslindale]

Final...
I've gone back and forth too many times...
I'm going to go with the MASS under 25c.

Now just deciding on 300 or 400 pieces

Unsolicited advice- don’t order if you aren’t happy. Don’t let them pressure you. Walk away if you aren’t jumping for joy. It’s their job to sell you this order.

To be clear: I’m not at all saying you’re making the wrong choice. These are yours and only your opinion counts, and there’s no way I could know what the right choice is for you. The rest of us are just poking, priding, and asking to help test your thoughts and help you get the best product.

Thanks for including us on your adventure. Can’t wait to see how they turn up. The custom CIC process is unknown to me.

 

[Roslindale]

Got my delivery today.

 

[warma]

Holy cow that was quick

 

[Nasatik]

I gotta say, these look pretty cool with the coins in the center.
