Vintage molds set showcase (1 Viewer)

How does the flower mold feel and how much do they weigh? I’ve been curious about these. They all seem to have cross hatching, which reminds me of cheap plastic but their age and manufacturer would suggest clay right? Very nice mold.
They are definitely clay. They are on the lighter side. Mine are right at 8g.

I thought about relabelling the green ones as Dragonara quarters because the colors were a good match. And most of my Dragonara inlay chips are only about 8.5g. But that was back when I thought I needed 120-160 quarters, and I only have 90. I'm getting past that now as my last few games I've only been putting 60-80 quarters on the table, and the games are just fine with that number.

Unfortunately only 2 colors and same denom. Cool chips though and I will relabel some or possibly do a 5-10 limit set out of the hot stamps.

175 inlaid purple and the rest HS. All grey are inlaid.

I'm working on a vintage/mixed molds set and some of these are going to go in that set also.

I'll probably have a few extras lol.
When you figure out how many extras you have, give me a shout. I could see putting some of thes with the ones I already have to make a playable set.

Fantastic find!
 
I’ve been on a major vintage mold sun run. It’s basically all I’m buying anymore. Seems like marketplace has more and more popping up.

The star crescents are thc and total bike tires.
Flower mold have “shaw” stamped in them.

The 5’s are flower mold with “pmcc” stamped.

The B over a bomb(?) are no mold. Not sure if they are clay or Bakelite.

First ever set of Elephant & Crown molds that I seen that weren’t on plastic chips.
These are tits-mint and crazy sharp. For some reason certain chips have a decimal after the numbers.

My flower (floral) mold set. MD-72
The mold is (was?) owned by the game company George & Co, who sold these from their store. Chips were made by ASM, and it's predecessors I believe.

Rack each of 25c, 50c, $1, $5 (missing one or two chips unfortunately) + yellow, purple and gray GCK hotstamps.

Plan is to mill these for a tourney set, but not completely set in stone yet.

I sure could use some of the purple and yellow…… if interested in getting rid of them. Absolutely beautiful!
 
I need to get some updated pics. I have a large Elks Club flower mold cash set with racks of .25 (pink), .50 (blue), $1 (yellow), $5 (green), $10 (red), $25 (purple), $50 (brown) and some non-denom (white).

Also have a few different sets of Nevada Mold. I have two functional cash sets and building a tournament set. Just need to mill the yellow that I have.
 
Some of the flower and Nevada mold sets.

I have 1800 of the Elks flower mold. Some quick pics of my shuffle stack. not pictured are the purple $25, brown $50, and white/ivory non denom. I have racks of blue .50. The one below: I have some of the chips that are also non-denom with an elk on one side, BPOE on the other.

Nevada mold? That gets confusing because I have enough for two cash sets, one tournament set, and some left over racks that will eventually be sold.

The dovetail (brown/orange) below caused quite the outrage on the Chipboard around 10+ years ago. I have 120 of those. Used to have a tournament set that included more colors of dovetail and some quarter pies (sold). Those are pretty rare 'Borland' ASM(?) chips. I had listed them as Borland which was part of the outrage. The other part was that I 'ruined' them by stamping them. Of course, no shits were given and I pissed off dozens of people... I'm sure many of those people would be equally disgusted by milling the yellow 1000 below.
