@azool love the Trump Tajs, they look minty sharp.
 
This set is my baby. I started it over 10 years ago and it has had too many changes made to it for me to even try to remember. To me the great thing about a mixed set it that there are no real rules, because you are already breaking them by having a mixed set. I ended up with the below chips because individually each chip by itself is awesome and I love the way they come together to make a complete set. It has Silver City dimes, old school MGM Grand Detroit quarters, Hard Rock Biloxi $1's, Chips Tukwilla $5's, and Dunes Baccarat $20's.

That looks great!

I may have to see if @BiGGyT wants to harvest some of those Biloxi HR $1's for me in a few months. I have been thinking about those and seeing them in racks pretty much has me sold.
 
I updated the set. Check out the new pics. These were done quickly so I will have to come back and take some better pictures. I just wanted to show you where the set is at now. Going on vacation tomorrow for a week so I wanted to show you the update before I left. Promise to do some better shots with my "Big Boy" Camera. Love them!

Edit: pictures updated!

Oh my goodness David. That set is fantastic! Nicely done.
 
Just got this set into play last night. I'll try to get a shot of the whole set next month.

Even though most are cash denoms, I'm using it as a tournament set for my league game. These move to different houses throughout the year, so didn't want something too expensive. Though might build it up over time.

I thought there might be some whining about colors or cash denoms, etc. The players seemed to like the chips. After playing with non denoms, they seemed happy to have somewhat appropriate denoms.

I like the idea that the set is modular. The main problem with the set it's replacing is that I couldn't get any more that matched. So if the game grows, I can try to find more racks of what I need or just replace those denominations.

The set consists of:
T25 = 170 X Garden City .25
T100 = 300 X Even Stevens $1's
T500 = 130 X Grand Victoria $5's
200 X Sporting $1000

I thought about labeling them, but don't know if I'll go that route.

Speaking of Aztar $25s...

This is my TH&C Mixed set. All TH&C, all mixed inlay. The biggest beef I have with the set is the $500. It was casino used whereas $5, $25, and $100 were all mint. The $1000 is casino used, but very lightly. I still have the Empress secondary $1000 that I purchased for this set, but I can't decide if I like the novelty of the 43mm over the continuity of the empress. The Empress $1000s are in much better shape than the $500, but they are not as crisp as the Par-A-Dice $1000.

Oh what to do...

Awesome set!!! Love the mix! But where are the $1's??? It'd be fun to find ones that work well with this.

Ahh, that would be fun, BUT...

I need a TH&C $1.
I need it to be uncirculated.
I need a shaped inlay.

That last one puts it in unicorn land. Oh yeah, it has to somewhat match on top of all that. I'll keep looking for that unicorn!
 
I was going to suggest the Aztar MO $1 as well but he already has not 1, but 2 denominations from Aztar MO.
