Resource to reference colours from common chips? (1 Viewer)

[grantc54]

Is there somewhere on the site where the colours of common chips have their official colour noted?

For example, I am trying to reference what the blues might look like of some of the new chips and gave many of the live casino blue chips.

Curious what colours Aria $1, MGM $1, etc are. Or the red base from Golden Nugget, etc.

The Museum of Chips site only seems to be general - red, blue, green, etc.

I dont think there is. But that would be a really good reference if someone had the time to put it together.

I’m more than happy to do this. Just need someone to send me a complete color set.

But in all honesty @Gear might be the best resource for this.

If a bunch of people worked together and sent in chip colors I bet it would come together pretty quick.

I agree though @Gear would probably know alot of them

I do know a lot of them -- the problem is that many of them are very slightly different from one another. That is, there might be 3 or 4 different chips that were all ordered from GPI as "Light Blue" say, and that is the closest official color in the Paulson palette ... but next to each other, they're obviously different colors, and a color matched to one would not match another.

That's a generic made-up example (Light Blue) but hopefully the point is clear.

I thought that was going to be your response. But it’s more like the batch difference, while the intention is a certain color it comes across in a shade. It’s not like mixing paint. I’m pretty sure something to do with temperature, compression, and use also play into the variation.

Yep... age, handling, storage conditions, all that good stuff

colors tend to darken on used chips

Does anyone know what blue the ACF T25000 Paulson tourney chip is? Also what the spot colours are?

Thanks

I think it's Day Blue, iirc. Definitely lighter than Blue Grain.

No longer have a Paulson color sample set, but still have lots of other chips with which I can compare colors. I'll check on the spot colors.

Something like this per chip?

And don't forget cleanliness. More than once I thought I had a certain colour chip, then after it came out of the ultrasonic it turned out to be something else.
