Not sure if this is the right spot to post this, but figure this is where I will get the best TRK advice.

I put together this mixed set which many others have done as well (1s, 5s, and 25s). I am struggling with the barrel of 100s as I picked a chip (chips) that are hard to come by and super expensive when I can locate them. Anyone have any suggestions for a nice TRK 100 that would work with this set that is easier (and hopefully cheaper) to come by?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I’m not a TRK expert but non fantasy TRK $100s all seem to be hard to get. $100 50-60 years ago was quite a lot more money, so casinos never had that many. That Jessie Beck’s TRK set listed by Leo right now only has 1 barrel of hundos.

Non fantasy TRK $500s are even harder. I can only think of 2 kinds. @Okku

I have the exact same $1s, $5s and $25s. Seeing this lineup solidifies my thinking that a yellow frac is the way to go.

Someone sell me a rack of near minty yellow solids. Pretty please, with a cherry on top. :unsure:

The Money Trees were "reasonable" at around 40-50 per chip but seemed to have dried up. The Mapes, when I can locate them are going $200-250 per chip and I just can't bring myself to pay that.
 
@calfdemon I'll make this simple and easy to understand in terms of rarity and what might be "harder to find".

Easier stuff (or should be):

There's a few that I was going to add, but hit the max file limit. Kind of gives a sense of what might be out there and what isn't

@FestiveKnight and @Gorbash soaked up the Money Tree trimoon hundos recently. I picked up a few too.

Kings Castle used I’ve rarely seen in quantity outside of Krish’s set. I have less than 2 barrels total. @detroitdad has a barrel. If you’re ok with lighter mint ones @TRKingChips can probably sell you a barrel.

If I could find a different barrel of 100s that were available and would flow with my set then I would trade them. I don't love them with the Nevada Lodge. I just don't have any other options

And I’m always a buyer/trader for more of these
 
Thank you all for the replies so far... I hadn't considered the Starlites because the phone number on the chip has always bothered me... lol. But they would work.

The easiest would be to use Kings Crowns as I have them in quantity, but then I would have to redo the fracs. I have some Kings Castles, but not enough and not sure how they would fit.

I'll do some lineup side by sides and see...

Phone number doesn't bother me one bit. I barely even remember it's there 90% of them time

How are you not done yet?

I have some Kings Castles, but not enough and not sure how they would fit.

I would consider trading some of my MT trimoon hundos for KC $100 depending on how many you have. PM me if interested.

I think Starlite could work for a leaded black hundo. I just think the shallow edge spots are usually seen in fantasy TRK chips.
 
I don't have any Starlites but based on the photos, I think that may be the path I take.

None of the other (easier available) options really grab me with this set.

Actually for that lineup the Starlite hundo really is a good fit. Hit me up if you’re looking to move the loose KC and fuschia/white/blue MT hundos.

They are and they aren't. TRK generally only did spots that didn't extend beyond the crowns for some reason. NC Brown $100, Plantation $100, Sparks $100, El Cortez $100 and others follow the same style, but I see what you're saying.
 
Then, for those that are thinking about $500 options in the future. Here's what I sent to @DirtyTIVA via ChipGuide the other week when he asked.

These are what's been documented onto ChipGuide which to me is the easiest place to find chips. Generally not too many $500 options, but there are some. Just going to be very expensive for Nevada options, minus fantasy chips.

What’s the story on those hot stamp fracs? They look amazing.
They're part of a group buy that guys had done for Kings Crown fantasy chips before TR King closed around 2008. There are a few different hot stamp versions of the 25c along with plenty of different versions of other denoms too. Stuff you'll never see from a casino elsewhere so truly one of a kind stamped chips.

I think there's a ton of those pictures at the beginning of this thread if I remember correctly.
