Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The edge spots almost look like “inserts” vs paint/ink. Looks kinda weird, I agree.

Chips are not painted, the spots are cut in before pressing the chip to make it basically seamless. But these are a totally different texture and everything. Strange chip indeed

Anyone see these yet? Brie says a "new sample chip"??

Only 4 hats and not very crisp and defined like normal RHCs, also

Just a weird chip, edge spots almost look added after the fact or something, not a smooth transition like a normal chip.

I got one maybe a year ago. Pretty sure it was from Luke as well. Cool chip… cooler FHC grey/green version if you’ve seen that one

No need to wait for the sleigh...over the Truckee River and through the woods to not-yet-Grandma’s house we go….

Hat tip to @leo822.

No Overlands....

 

[Budha]

Lol - yup, I was just referring to the slang term “paint” for edge spots.

But, I think it looks a bit weird - lol .

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

Maybe.

Awesome! Was almost my gateway TRK LCrown rack.

I’m glad it wasn’t.

I think they’re separately inserted pieces of injection-molded plastic which are inserted instead of typical clay spots and are significantly firmer than the clay leading to that lack of texture on them. Not a particularly new sample, and that style of chip was used on the 2018 RFID WSOP final table chips.

Yeah... from the front that set looks like this.

Is your set now complete or still missing a few? Artichoke Joes

Oh that's not my set, those belong to Krish now. My set is the long slow build, someday hoping to get to a rack of $1s (mixed RHC and THC, literally never going to find enough THC to make that happen) would love to eventually get to two racks of $4s (we have 171) and we have (87) hot stamped quarters and obviously would love to finish the rack. Other than that and some customs higher denom plaques, we are getting pretty close!

Merry Christmas Sonny! Hope there are some awesome Horse chips waiting underneath the tree brother!

Oh...sorry. Thought that was yours as I knew you were building a set. You are looking for sale chips though, correct? Love this set.

I just added my new babies from @John Conor yesterday! Didn't take any photos so had to run down and grab them this mprning!

What I wish the set was now

But in reality it is

And the quarter situation...

(87) Hot stamps (16) dark inlaid (40) lighter inlays! Such a mess but I love them!

Yup those nickles are sicko cool and sharp

I have a rack of the nickles and dimes
The Pennie’s are the coolest color

 

[HaRDHouSeiNC]

Now that they are all cleaned and polished up

Id take a rack of the sharp nickels. I think those are my favorite color between the pennies, nickels, and dimes, although the salmon (?) color of the dimes is really nice as well.

The "not be able to stand on" edges are actually very nice...

The dimes are neon bright pink

The "not be able to stand on" edges are actually very nice...

Some are pretty worn
Disappointing on some given the price

I wish they were all the same as the best condition ones there
