My Good Luck Charms (1 Viewer)

[masayako]

I was always fascinated by poker chips. Not too long ago, I start collecting the ones that caught my eyes. It's not so much how rare, how much it worths... it's all about how it looks & feels to me: The color combination, the chalky feel, the design, etc. By no mean a meaningfully sized collection, just what I have so far.

During my cash game with friends, I will pick one or two of these as card-guard or luck charm. It's all fun. If you kind enough to have the missing pieces of my puzzle, I will be happy to acquire them from you. A few more chips coming in the next few weeks, I will keep my thread updated as it evolves. Thank you for a wonderful forum.

Update:
As of Jan 29, 2021, I was able to add a few lucky charms to my collection: Trump Plaza ($1), Taj Mahal ($2.50). Taj Mahal ($1), California Hotel (25c), Paris ($1), Hustler Casino ($1, $2, $3, $5). I am very happy about these additions.

Taj Mahal: I am starting to collect Trump casino chips selectively. I am most interested in Paulson chips, so I particularly look for that combination. It has an interesting design where it shows the value of the chips imprinted as well. That's something new and interesting to me. If you know of any other pretty Taj Mahal chip worth buying, please let me know.

California Hotel (25c): This one is free when I purchased the Taj Mahal. The seller gave it to me as a bonus. But I start to like the simplistic old school design of it. I cleaned it up a little and it's very nice to look at. I don't know much about this chip, if you do, please let me know. Thanks!

Paris ($1): I really like the edge color (blue/white) especially when it stacks up. Too bad I only have 1 chip. If the price is cheap enough, I may get a stack. Someday. The font is very nice. It gives an old Paris feel to it. Well, I like all things old school, I guess.

Hustler Casino ($1, $2, $3, $3, $5): Originally, I intend to just get the $1 chip 'cos I can't find the rest. Now that I found a set of $1, $2, $3, $3, and $5, I got to have a set of them. Now I have an extra $1 (haha). Does anyone know why there are two different designs for the $3? If so, please let me know. If anyone knows a higher value chip than $5 for this, please kindly let me know. I am interested in re-union them all as a family.

Bellagio $1 vs Hustler $1: It is particularly interesting how the $1 chip design look so similar. The Font Size is different, but the rest are pretty much the same. Must be from the same designer. Very pretty chip in my eyes.
