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

Decent. Love the inlay. A 6 sounds reasonable to me. Nothing super exciting going on here.
 
Inlays are kinda neat for a casino design - nice curves, lines, symmetry, and patterns. Small crowns are meh, but they kinda work here. Spot patterns are a little odd - two quarter-pies, then three 414s? But again, it kinda works. Colors are nice. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH TWO DIFFERENT TWENTY-FIVES ???

I like it more than I'd think I would. Six out of ten.
 
One of my absolutely favorite sets!
..... and yet I think it's a design mess and actually voted this one the lowest of all I have voted on so far. The reuse of patterns but only for 2 chips at a time, highest denom being the most bland, different shaped inlays but so similar they're still essentially the same, a red 25?
..... and yet I would do so many morally questionable things to get them
 
Very little progression, and TRK's nubby little tiny edgespots are frustrating. That said, these are stunning. 9
