Sold MINT HOT stamps from Vegas $275.00 shipped (1 Viewer)

New pictures of edges added to further help the clay vs. plastic discussion. If you love hot stamps check this set of 275 chips out. These are from the Opera House Casino in Las Vegas. The casino closed in 2015 after being open for 40 years. They are Mint ! The colors are great and would really pop with some oil. The set is has 154 - $5 , 93- $25, and 28 - $100. These are clay chips with the unicorn mold. They are in excellent shape ! paypal FF

I'd love a sample as well.

I can't quite tell from the pictures in the OP if the rolling edges have any markings from the lathe process. But CPC's are clay and the rolling edges are smooth.

I also am curious i may have to go to cash casino and take a couple

I'll take a sample set. Thanks @41Pickup for the good deal on what is turning out to be an unknown item amongst a very knowledgeable base of chippers.

 

[John Conor]

I'll buy a sample too. Thanks.

Robert just responded back and said:

For what it is worth, @David Spragg said "Only injection molded plastic.”​

I'm so confused.

Same here. I'm truly baffled.

All I can think of when I see the texture and sharp edges in those photos is those damn Pinoeer chips. I hope I'm wrong.

Watching with interest. We learn, or see, something new everyday.

Not to belabor the point, but Robert emailed me again and quoted Jim Blanchard

"As far as I know, only injection molding.”

As many are aware, between these two sources, their credentials are CPC, ASM, Chipboard, and ChipGuide.

Surely a mold used for injection molding cannot just be tossed on a press and then used for compression molding, right? They have to be two very different things, don't they?
I've never seen the equipment, so I have no idea. And even if my above assumption is true, it isn't dispositive of the issue. Obviously molds could exist to work with both mediums. But it seems like people are willing to accept the notion "yes, this mold was used mostly for injection molding, but has been used for compression molding too" a bit too easily. It's not that simple, right?
Edit: now that I think about it, I guess cups are made from the mold? And the cups are what actually mold the chips? My vocabulary' a little off, but you get my point.

I think this is the primary cause for confusion at this point... the idea that there are identical clay and plastic molds out there is what's throwing people off. While it is unlikely that two separate, yet identical, sets of molds exist for different manufacturing processes, it's certainly not impossible.

Paulson diamond mold. Both plastic and clay chips..........

From the pictures showing the edges I would say those are clay. I am sure @41Pickup would not say they were clay if he was not positive.

I suggest a new sales thread since we all derailed this thread
