The next Cash Set. Help! I need a $5 chip ideas! (2 Viewers)

[Jeff]

I have a new inlay and theme to work with. Not gonna share yet.

I have always wanted this chip in a cash set as the workhorse $1 chip:

I don't know how grey will work, so maybe this one:

and I really like this as a $20

 

[Psypher1000]

I've always thought a nice solid white $5 would look nice...

 

[Jeff]

Lol. But that's not even level 1. Screws the spot progression all up!

 

[Jeff]

Maybe old-school yellow instead of dayglow saturn?

 

[Rhodeman77]

I like the grey $1 sooooo much more than the white $1, not even close. The shaped inlay is pretty much wasted on a white chip too. Might as well save the extra money it wlll cost and go with round if you use the white chip.

If you are going unique colors, retro lavender would make a great $5 and fit well with the $1 and $20 options you are thinking of using.

Also grey is so light that when you use a blue color with it, it makes it look more blue, which is a normal color for a $1 chip.

+1 to what @Rhodeman77 said.
Gray all the way for the 1.
Retro Lavender with black spots or maybe Maroon with old school Yellow spots (or Butterscotch) for the 5 - keep DG Saturn for the 20.

 

[Jeff]

Different Reds.

 

[Coyote]

If it's red, then Retro red anytime, if there is no specific reason suggesting otherwise, IMO.

 

[k9dr]

Just plain old red (y) :thumbsup:

 

[superchromix]

I prefer Red or Mandarin red, depending on the spots.

 

[Ronoh]

Doesn't have to be red

 

[Danger mouse]

If you like the yellow chip maybe a Cali set? Would go great with the grey $1 imo.

 

[Coyote]

If Jeff is going to honor this Forum's tradition of ordering around 1000 5s per set plus a couple of racks for breakfast, the spots have to be fairly simple, unless money is not an issue.
But they can't be too simple, because of the already complex spots on the 1. And there's already red and blurple on the 20's spots...
Here's an idea of simple yet "filling" spots

 

[Mtvernonbryan]

Old school yellow!!

 

[Jeff]

Here are some $5 red and brown choices:

 

[Payback]

Love that brown chip.

 

[Jeff]

The brown chip is a "Dunkin Donuts" Chip. I think I might be partial to the 6A14.

 

[Payback]

Potential quarter in the making IMO. I have a hard time loving non red chips for 5s, but that's me. Chocolate quarters, or even a 20, though nom nom.

 

[slisk250]

retro, get some brigfht white and light green in there - not sure about a spot really. that is a tough call given the neighbors

 

[Mtvernonbryan]

If you want to see that brown chip already done, check these out. It’s prob one of my faves.

I like second chip on top left

 

[abby99]

I like where this is going.

Did you buy a second chip cabinet???

 

[Coyote]

I love heresy, but not blasphemy.
If not one of the 3 available reds, I wouldn't go further than Maroon in one direction or Retro Lav in another.
Spots, if you keep the 4 spots on the 1 (do keep them), either 4D14, or the classic plain 412. Classic never goes out of fashion.

I prefer the red five in this set. I like red 2, red 3, or red 4. Out of these three chips I think #2 or #3 fit best with within the set.

Jeff, IMO the actual color of dayglo Saturn looks more like the greenish background than anything. Old school FTW.

 

[ChaosRock]

LOVE the $1 and $25 Jeff! And as Rhodeman said, the gray looks way better than the while with those soits for the $1 IMO.

Now, just a bit of food for thought: Both $1s and $25s have different colors combining for the spots. I would personally tend to have the $5s with multiple color spot as well, not separate but together, like the other two chips.

 

[Jeff]

Hey, @ChaosRock , in regards to having multiple color spots together ... would the 4D14 count?
