My top 5

Good coloration and design! I like this one.(y) :thumbsup: I don't know how TR Kings feel like. Are they heavy? fun to play with?

 

[Psypher1000]

Either of these would be nice.

a set of arodie chips would be awesome!! never handled them, but really admire the detail of the mold.

I like these two. Fifty bucks on a good day would get you either of them.

Also, be patient as you look for singles. For a couple months I have offered a few people (who overvalue this chip) here and there $$ but consistently they kept wanting $30 for it.

PCAs are really good imo. Renos and Mapes are classic. Good choice.(y) :thumbsup:

A lot of TR King lovers here! Why they stopped producing?

They look really rare and old. What's the mold on the Horseshoe? It seems like Horseshoe has a long history back. How did you come across those chips?

Yussir. There's only one or two examples of each known to exist.

What's the mold on the Horseshoe?

Arrow-die, sometimes abreviated as ARODIE.

How did you come across those chips?

Going to the summer CCA conventions; reading articles; talking to Mike Spinetti and his staff.

It seems like Horseshoe has a long history back.

Yup. Benny Binion and his properties have a long and somewhat colorful history.

@Psypher1000 Good knowledge. I can always learn something from you. I'm happy.

While not available... I find myself almost wishing that the MGM in Maryland will go out of business so that we can get our hands on these fives!
