THIS THREAD WAS STARTED TO SEE IF THERE WAS INTEREST AND NOW PROCEEDING TO ACCEPTING AND FUNDING PRE-ORDERS. READ THROUGH THIS OP...INSTRUCTIONS AT THE END>>>
I'm not expecting a lot of interest and not looking to have a bunch of samples floating around, but want to at least extend the offer as I have appreciated picking up samples here and there.
One of my favorite movies is Tombstone. There is a building still standing today that was built back in 1881 and it is currently a bed & breakfast named the Silver Nugget. This set is a tip of the hat to Doc Holliday. Background graphic on the 25c / $1 / $5 / $100 is a daisy: "You're a daisy if you do." Background graphic on the $20 for when you mean business in a 25c/50c game are huckleberries: "I'm your huckleberry."
I don't currently have a Cali colored set, so that made me steer this way. No color for any base/spot is duplicated within the set. HHR mold as I know that mold is super solid and the inlays should have a nice texture. These are going to look way better in person than what the design tool shows based on CPC color samples I have in hand. I am going with shaped inlays on the $5 / $20 / $100 because you only live once.
HHR orders with CPC close this month, so I am looking to have a fairly short window here before my order is finalized. If there is enough interest and responses here I will turn this into a presale thread with a spreadsheet. For simplicity I may limit this to US addresses within the lower 48 states; in your response below please mention where you are located (state / country) and I can gauge things from there. Also, mention if you would be interested in plastic airtites for the chips as I might just price in/include those if people would be so inclined. I would then for sure be shipping in small flat rate boxes...5-chip set: 25c / $1 / $5 / $20 / $100
I would say the only real change to this set would be if interest goes wild or someone else wants to join with me in getting a playable set I could consider doing a hotstamp for the red frac. At that point, it probably makes sense to add a 50c frac...I left myself weighted base colors of lavender, pink, orange, and all greens that could be used for a 50c frac (and potential other denom add-ons to this set).
Unoiled, bad lighting color samples, but you can see the progression/flow from chip to chip:
Okay, proceeding with pre-orders:
1) Each 5-chip sample set is $25
2) Shipping is not included at this time
3) I will accept orders/payments through the end of day next Sunday, May 12th and intend to finalize my order with CPC that following Monday
4) Payment to be made via Paypal friends & family...please don't mention anything in comments other than your username
5) I will keep track/update everything in spreadsheet form in this post
6) I will reach out to collect shipping cost and shipping address info. once the chips are in hand
7) Just to be clear, I am looking for any pre-orders to be funded by the end of Sunday, May 12th as I will then be locking in my order with CPC.
8) I will contact/follow up with each person via PM
