Oh, it's bricks alright.

I'll let these two do the talk:

Picked up an old cigar box with some old chips in them. It came with a complete deck of cards from 1916 and some old dice.

Also picked up a couple singles for my collection.

I've got/had 1s from 21 West Elizabeth. Obviously roulette chips as they come in a bunch of different colors.

Seems like most of the chips in your haul are illegals.
 
A set I've absolutely admired for years!!!

A huge thank you to @JP1984 for parting with such a great set!!! Will keep The Wasp's Nest going in the USofA!

Kudos to @BonScot for accepting the delivery of these chips.
And an EXTRA kudos to @NotRealNameNoSir for hauling/muling these chips "over the pond" to help me avoid any tariffs! Big big thank you!!!

Next: building up the set by just a couple more racks (relabelling some 1s and a few more fracs - yay!), and I've already put in my order for a matching Tabletop!
Will show more pics when the chips are put in action with the tabletop.

Again, thank you all!
Love this Forum!

Thank you @pipdenny for this small set from Pancho Magoo's. Best $1 chip I've ever seen:

Does anyone know if $25s are out there or an alternative 3D14 chip that would work well?

Also looking to add another rack of $1s at least (cough @JWJ cough) :sneaky:
Congrats, those $1s are gorgeous!
 
A few things arrived while I was away at the observatory for a shift:

More anniversary chips. I'd never seen the Aztar anniversary before. Would this have won the GOAT red chip if it were nominated rather than the house version? :unsure: :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Nicer versions of most of the lower-end of the Ameristar East Chicago set. I'd just come into chipping when I first saw these back on CT. I never had a desire to build a playable set, but there was something about the relatively simple design and color matching on the oversized inlay that caught my eye.

I'm now committed to finding a good example of each of the quarters that were released, but I expect that to be a bit of a challenge.


There's other stuff that arrived, but I'm waiting for other deliveries to show up so I can match those with things that arrived but are better displayed as a group.
