This is a good looking chip. Any idea the official Paulson colors? I could see this making a great frac if re-labeled and paired with a white house mold $1.
Like the MGM Foxwoods tri-moon $1?

It was.. but! Just more work for me with my heavy drinking friends.
It wasn't fun?????
When I looked it up it says Day Blue and pink
I'm keeping a few hundred for my vegas house mold set.
Unless the color is really off on those pics, I don't think that's Day Blue. I was thinking maybe Ocean Blue or Bahama Blue.
Looks a lot like this to me. But it's super hard to nail colors based on photos.
It's lighter than that, but agreed it's hard to judge by pictures.
This one by @Goronic makes them look pretty light:
This one by @StevenB88 makes the blue look a little "richer" and more saturated:
But neither are as deep as in your mockup. *shrug*

I think the sale pics are fairly accurate, maybe a bit darker. Here are the Vegas chips next to each other for reference.

Maybe Horizon Blue? They still look a touch darker than the Flamingos, which I believe are Day Blue.
I should probably know this, but does Paulson/GPI ever have non-standard colors for house mold chips, since they are only for the one property or brand?

I’m not sure but they’re definitely darker than the flamingos. Either way they look great in person in my opinion.
The 1s I had where an additional wave of new 1s. They had only been played a few days if that. I would say they are close in color to the light blue Sam's Town LV HS 1s.

The picture I took had light coming in from the window. The bottom picture is more accurate of their color. They are really nice looking ones in my opinion.

Appreciate the side by side comparisons. I had a warm setting on my camera and didn’t realize it. This one is better compared to the only blue chips I have.
They really are nice chips and from my understanding they have a nice weight to them compared to other current casino chips in production.
Im keeping 400 of them just getting rid of what I won't use.

I have murdered a few of those Sahara's. Pretty sure they are day blue. Small chance they could be one of the other lighter blue colors, but both Ocean and Bahama Blue are much darker than this chip. I'll look tomorrow & see if I still have one.
Horizon Blue is too dark too. Flamingo's are Day Blue
No
I mocked this up when I started my set
I'm probably wrong with the Day Blue on the $5 but no other blue matched either

I took another picture with this next to some of the other blues and it’s pretty dang close to the flamingo. It does look a touch different tone but maybe it’s the inlay making it look a bit different.
If you are using a phone, cover the two inlays with your thumbs. You’ll see the difference that @ChipMonster is talking about. It is slight, but it’s there.
These are wonderful to play with. Someone grab these!
