I can't seem to send a dm to you - not sure if it's a newbie thing or i'm doing something wrong

I think @dontpassdontcome just needs more posts before those things activate. Or maybe more time on top of more posts since the account was just created yesterday.

I would suggest creating a new post in the introductions subform and introduce yourself and talk about your chipping journey that lead you here.

I think the system just needs time to catch up since he just did his 3rd post

Had some time for a family shot. The $25/$100$500/$1000’s are recent additions. Looking for more 1k’s and some 5k and 25k’s for a t100 tourney set.

If anyone from my not great photos can tell what variants the second rack of $25’s over to the 1k’s are I like to keep track but I’m terrible at determining what they are.

Still coming to terms with the fact that I have been continuously using a very large Protégé tournament set for close to 20 years, and haven't properly appreciated the quality and scarcity of my chipset

I value these chips mostly for their playability: they have a great balance of weight and texture and riffle-ability that makes them enjoyable to stack and manipulate. They have held up incredibly well through continuous use. They get compliments.

All that being said, I was considering replacing these with a 'highest possible quality' chipset. This was before I fully understood the high regard for protoges.

If cost was no object, what chipsets should I look at that match or exceed the quality and playability of these protoges? For tournament use, must have denominations between 100 and 25000.

Any recommendations welcomed, no judgement intended.

Did you mean to post this in the PNY thread?

I’m thinking the second rack of $25’s next to the $100’s is v1. The $100’s are v1 the $500’s are v1 and the $1000’s are V2. If I’m not right I would love help so I can keep track.

Sometimes they're really tough to tell unless you have the variations side by side, but if I had to guess from the photos, they appear to be:

$25s - v2
$100s - v1
$500s - v1
$1000s - v2
