Mismatched Cash Set? (1 Viewer)

[gmansbu]

Maybe a newbie question, but is it unheard of to put a cash set together of chips where each denom is a different style. Chips match within denoms, but different denom are different chip types.

I was wondering if I could use my favorite 1s, 5s, 25s, etc. get a rack or two of each and combine them to make a cash set.

Or is that crazy talk and I should stick with matching sets?

Just because people do something all the time does not mean it isn't crazy...

Mixed sets happen all the time, and are usually fairly easy to put together. However, we tend to frown on mixing chip materials.

I intentionally did this with my ceramic Icarus set, you can find in my signature, these are all custom to create the mix set

Mixing casinos within a set is not crazy, but IMHO mixing chip types is. Things just feel weird & off if you've got real clay and China clay, or real clay and plastic, or ceramic and plastic in play at the same time. This would be okay if I were to throw a home game with it, despite the RT Plastics frac.

I don’t think it’s crazy at all. Additionally, a person could conceivably be building multiple sets while they’re playing with a mixed table spread. Yes, commonality within denominations but aside from that I say we should what we do.
