Rate this line-up - Antique Rose (1 Viewer)

[PocketAces]

We had the "Rate this inlay" series in 2020, and since I like polls, I thought I'd start a series to pick PCF favorite line up. I am going to use pictures of samples I own because as usueful as the Chip Guide can be, picture quality is often...subpar. Sadly I don't have that many samples, so you are encouraged to contribute with your own (cash/tournament, casino/fantasy - THC/RHC/TRK, your personal CPC custom...doesn't matter as long as you own the sample)

What you are voting on:
- color progression/combinations
- edge spot progression
- inlay design
How do you rate the overall design of the set?

What you aren't voting on:
- rarity/availability
- condition
- affordability

The white is such an outlier. Perhaps that's a good thing.
It is a dark colored them for sure.
It is certainly a fun set up.
The only improvement to my eye would be a purple $20.
Nice looking though!

Fuck y'all if you don't know perfection......

Actually, if I'm being fair, the only knock for me is the spot on the one. You change that to a Arc or a lighter edge that pops and it would mix in the Hundo. But I don't care. Perfection

This is all about tastes and opinions, right?
I don’t love hot stamp sets, but I don’t hate them either.
What I do hate is just making up your own color scheme for denominations - Cali colors are one thing, but this set is totally off the rails.
I also really hate having the same spot pattern for the first 4 chips, then progressing from there.
I do like the progression, once it finally starts progressing.

I'm with you on the progression of spot patterns.

You make good points about spot patterns. However I think the choice of base colors is bold and awesome. Could have been so much more had the $1 and $5 been 3D14.
It works very well overall tho I think. Gave it a 7.

Oh my angry button is gonna be hot in this thread.

Why you pick something so controversial!

I gave this set 8/10 based strictly on the $100 chip. $20 is great too.

 

[dktoller]

Liking the $100. Both the $5 and $20 are super dark which could be hard on a poorly lit table. Overall nice choices though. 7/10.

These get a 6. I love the $20 and hundo, but everything else is just decent. I do like the black $5 though, that's unique and I'm sure will tilt the F out of a lot of people. The hundo does seem totally out of place in this set though. It's too good for the rest of the chips IMO.

Swapping the $5 and $1 colors would have made more sense, but a mint set of these would've been insane, and the $100 is one of my favorite chips of all time.

Spot progression 3 3 3 3 6 9 is lacking. Colors are muted except for $5 and $100. Underwhelming overall, hotstamps wear.off too easy leaving meh behind.
