And sold…
I think it’s the 500K!For me (and I think many with me) the 1M and 5M are the most iconic poker chips of current generation.
Dibs lol?Sure, until the half barrel listing for $2500 goes up!
You are correct!
Says rfid chip but shows v8 chip not the rfid chip??
It's almost as if not everyone is a chip nerd or something...Says rfid chip but shows v8 chip not the rfid chip??
Hmmm… good catch.Says rfid chip but shows v8 chip not the rfid chip??
Well, the good thing is, at those prices, I certainly don’t feel bad about giving up on trying to complete a third barrel of the 1m chips.
Joined eBay may of 2025 (during the initial hoard release) and his other items for sale are trashMakes me think there’s still some of these Rios available somewhere (outside of the stash sold off early this year).
Next up, 5 more at $350/ea?annnnnd… there gone.
Someone just shared this on pokerchipper.com and it gives a glimpse into how many Rio 50mm chips were made.
For example I think it was 300 of the T5M.

A bit too much work from my iphone but maybe something @Zmasterben could dig into if you are bored!
That’s a good guess, a 5k RFID never used.… more interesting is they list 500 of a Blaze Orange chip in the same set. Did they make the 5Ks and never use them because they weren't needed at the final table?
Thanks for doing the legwork! Any idea on the 8V red 500k 50mm?
Duh. Well this resource must be available prior years. I’ll ask him on chipper.It would have been 2010 so before the reports but educated guess is probably 500.
Made but never used... meaning it still exists somewhere, waiting to be listed on eBay?Did they make the 5Ks and never use them because they weren't needed at the final table?
This probably belongs on one of your WSOP resource pagesInteresting things of note for the RIO years:

In 2018 1,000 of the Forest Green, Hawaii Flower, and Red 50MM chips were made. 500 of the Canary Yellow 50MM chips were made. Even more interesting is they list 500 of a Blaze Orange chip in the same set. Did they make the 5Ks and never use them because they weren't needed at the final table?
Also RFID is not mentioned on these chips

500 of the Ocean Blue 500Ks were made in 2017 and 500 of the Mustards were made in 2018.
Other notes:
67K of the 2012 Secondaries were re-ordered in 2018.
The WSOP was ordering 6-10K $500 Buy-In chips per year.
A mysterious "Mint 5,000,000" chip was approved and supposed to be made in 2020 but was canceled due to COVID. I'm guessing it was intended to be a continuation of the Black 500K and Metallic Silver 1M special high denom set.
We need the canary 43mm 100k first, we know that chip actually exists and was felted.Made but never used... meaning it still exists somewhere, waiting to be listed on eBay?

Some Nevada construction worker is playing 5D chess - plotting how best to get us PCF idiots to fund his retirement.This really leads to the question of where are these chips and why weren't they with the others?
Can you put this data by chance in the WSOP resource threads!? Love knowing the counts @Zmasterben and @CordInteresting things of note for the RIO years:
