Looking for 12-13 vintage clay “Paranoid” / “Crest & Seal” chips with GREEN COMETS.
Chips are used as the $25 of my retro set and I need 13 more as spares for breakage, etc.

eBay, FB, CL, Mercari, etc. have been dry for months.

See pics

~39 mm diam
square-edged
~7.8-8.1 grams each
a stack of 20 stands ~64 mm tall (2.5 inches)
Give me a shout if you can help!

… you might be seeing some of the wear on the edges and thinking it’s brass. I included that picture just to show that these are square-edged as opposed to the round-edged versions out there.
 
Nope, just plain as far as I can tell.

To the best of my knowledge, US Playing Card and Burt Co never made these with added metal back in the 1930’s and 40’s The weight of ~8 g would also support a “no”.

I’ll have to get you some pictures later tonight when I get home from work. The look is right, but my scale is still MIA with a lot of other things after our move.
 
Ooh. I just picked up some Paranoids for first time. Not the logo you want, sorry. But will keep an eye out.

I figure you may know a bit about how to maintain them. Happy for me to ask a few questions? Here or PM?
