I love this design element too!!

I know @desjgn uses it on his, and the Fournier Congress 2826, and probably a host of others!

 

[Jambine]

Dal Negro used to make a lot of those

 

[Bearbocmc]

Are there somewhere I can purchase a good set of these that are plastic? Like Copag or something ?

Copaqs are the Dice Chips of plastic cards.

 

[Bearbocmc]

Lol I like my Copag cards they’ve done me good! But I’m in the market for cards that have that yellow center any recommendations?

 

[Kyle]

Fourniers are good and are used at my games.

Copaqs are the Dice Chips of plastic cards.

I'd consider them more like china clays -- they get the job done, are relatively inexpensive, and look sorta like the real deal, but you can do much better.

The real dice chips of the plastic card realm are Royals.

Amazon has a decent selection of plastic cards.

 

[David O]

What size and index are you looking for?

 

[AK Chip]

Which cards would be the Mint leaded THC?

 

[upNdown]

Here’s Modiano, Piatnik, Fournier, and Davinci all with some level of yellow shading in the middle. All are probably available on Amazon except piatnik.

The box got cut out on that first pic
The Ace of spades says “TRIESTE” but I don’t think they’re usually sold using that model name?

 

[upNdown]

FWIW, I’d probably recommend the davinci’s as an entry level plastic card. They’re a bit stiffer than I like, but probably just right for a lot of folks. And you can get a setup on amazon for $13 bucks which includes cut cards.

 

[BGinGA]

Bicycle Prestige Duraflex can be found for $8 per set-up occasionally on Amazon. Tough to beat that for value, considering they are made by Fournier. No box or cut cards, though.

Divinci's are a pretty nice card for the price, and they have the yellow middle requirement. Better than COPAQ's for sure IMO.

 

[TheBigTater]

Just be careful buying any cards made by @#$&ano , they may be marked.

Great cards, but they don't have the yellow center. I love em though.

Desjgn? Pre-USPC KEMs maybe? I'm still not convinced on those. I think the 2008 WSOP KEM's are some of my favorite feeling cards though.

Ah. Davinci jumbos have yellow centers?

 

[v1pe]

Where do you get them? I haven't yet found them for a decent price. I got a set of the "Maya" backed cards from Amazon but the two deck backs look so similar that I haven't used them yet for fear of mixing them up.

I have that same setup, one of the first decks I bought after I discovered there was more out there than Copaq. I need to get them back in play again, nice looking cards.

 

[BGinGA]

That Da Vinci Ace of Spades looks way too much like @#$&ano for me. Made by the same wonderful folks?

 

[TheBigTater]

Yes beware, DaVinci cards are made by @#$&ano , therefore, they may be marked in various ways.

 

[ejot]

I believe they are.

 

[David O]

They are one in the same.

 

[BGinGA]

So a full boycott would include @# $&nci cards, too?
