The F5 phenom unmasked!

Are those actual white inlays, stickers, something else?
White inlays. Not going to attempt murdering those as it would be a disaster. Exploring a stamp of some sort (cancellation stamps triggered the thought), laser etching (high speed, low power, repeat/play until decent results - with good venting of course), or just leave blank. Leaning towards an etched protege NCV design to see what kind of details could be achieved. Any thoughts or ideas?

Who ever paid $14.27 a chip reach out. There’s moar to be had especially at that price.
Well... I'm not actively looking to sell but at those numbers it would be difficult to say no.
On another, more affordable note... The ceramic Proteges shipped today. I picked up some of the non-standard denoms to check out. I'll post some images when they arrive. $1.35 is much more reasonable than $10++. They're not clay and don't have the C&S mold but might be fun felt on occasion.
Looking at a potential limit game with snappers and $50s. Only chipper that can probably pull that off with clays is @Split. Pretty sure he's taking those to the grave...

Ai is great
Ceramics arrived. Chips seem in line with their higher-end, Archetype ceramics. Injection points are pretty smooth, with none protruding. The linen texture on the face of the chips feels nice. All in all, pretty nice and should be able to have some fun with them. Just need to decide on which denoms for a cost-effective limit set (should have picked up some $5Ks to mix with the $100Ks and $2s to mix with the .10¢).

I was thinking something similar. Though I typically prefer $25 chips for cash sets, I think a ceramic limit set with snappers and $20s would pretty sweet. I noticed that the ceramic $20 have the green tinted background of the original design mocks. The clay $20s have, at best, only a hint of this green hue. It's nice that the ceramics offer something the clays cannot other than availability.

I picked some up this weekend, they dropped the price. Not sure how they are still available?
