Anyone curious on these IHC hundos on how they rank... well, one of the best Tigerclaws I have ever seen in person. But I am partial because they are the 3 basic color scheme to Easter in the edge spots there. Just beautiful chips!

Thank you @ImCrossland for the opportunity!!

As it should. I'm glad they seem to be trickling in on time or early, ours was scheduled for tomorrow. Hopefully noone has a delay! Thanks again!!

A lovely old, leaded, shaped, textured THC mail day.

Hal Mar $25 #99 arrived. Need 1 more to finish up the rack.

I totally get this. Packed 26k chips recently for a group buy. Did I get the addresses right? Did I count correctly? Did I use enough tape? Why did one package get there but the other one get stranded in Tucumcari?

Have not slept for a week because of all these questions. You hit it right on the nose.

My finger hurts just lookin at the cancellation stamps, but this was an unexpected and exciting package. We're in playable territory soon, but there's still a lot of work to be done. Still looking for more $25s/$100s to get it finished if anyone can help (cash/trade)!

If you’re not in need of that Capitol City $20 I’d love to buy it from you. I have 85 and would like to finish the rack…

For a second I thought these were FLV $25s, and thought I could help, but these are shaped inlays, right?

 

[Windwalker]

And with this rack, my BTP set is complete. Thanks. @MatB!

Correct. Someone else can chime in, but basically these were made for Grand Casino "Hinckley", but they were misspelled as "Hinkley", so the casino redesigned, reordered, and these were rejected and canceled (Chip Guide link). The $5s and $25s colors/inserts were then used in the FLV lineup and the hundos in a different fantasy set or sets, like the Steve Appleton chips, I believe in that order. Your Cajun Cup murdered/relabeled hundos were the canceled hundos. Removing the stamp is a pain, but I love the chips so I've been trying to make a playable set for a while. They didn't make any $1s so I am looking for FLV $1s though .

Seeing these now is a good reminder of why I kept a rack.

@Windwalker - Krish Did you say you had some FLV $25’s ????

Only for trade!

Agreed. And they remind me of the Joliet hundos too, which is one of my favorite black chips. These chips look a LOT better in person (but that's generally for most minty Paulsons, isn't it?). Thx again @ImCrossland ...

P.S. when I put my name in the hat for the hundos, I didn't realize they were 43mm until much later when I got caught up with all the hoopla... and the 50mm chips are insanely big! A good friend will get one of my two barrels in his mailbox soon...

Now I have to figure out how to make this into a set for our game using some of my other 43mm chips

Beautiful bear claw goodness right there! Congrats!

 

[Blacksox1]

Thanks @casinochipper22

 

[Rieguy]

Thanks @ReallyGoodUsername for looking out!

Trying to save more from murder or hiding in closets if anyone has a line on some.

 

[JesterTX]

This minty goodness just showed up from Feebay buy. That makes chip number 2 and probably the last one I buy at current single prices.

I need one of those!

If I find another, will keep you in mind. Not a cheap chip.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in...

Like the chip whore that I am, I couldn't even wait to get these inside the house before taking a picture of them. This is in front of my mailbox...
