Mint MSC $500 weight
I got about 40/60 “mint”/near mint rack but had to pull out a barrel and find another to make that happen, barrel I got rid of had the discolouring. It’s achievable though.A few racks of those in mint would have been awsome.
My two racks are underway, hope to get at least one good rack. after cleaning.
There a great looking MTT T100 set, kinda make me regrets not getting one set of the higher denomination
Thanks, I got lucky and very happy with it. still have the lower denoms to show, 600 x $1, 400 x $5 and 300 x $25.There a great looking MTT T100 set, kinda make me regrets not getting one set of the higher denomination
Yes, the $1 cleaned up nicely - they are in much better condition than I first thought as well. I like their clean inlay lookThanks, I got lucky and very happy with it. still have the lower denoms to show, 600 x $1, 400 x $5 and 300 x $25.
$1’s clean nice and look nice, one of my favs.
That’s a lot lol. These I keep as is because of history etc but I do have newer Paulsons with inlays on their way to be executed nicely and given better look.My mint hundo's are nothing less then spectacular...my 2 racks of $500 have touched Belgian soil as we speak.
Mine will be part of a mixed set but i'm 100% sure on murdering them all... (death to all faux shaped inlays)
Just got delivery of +6000 labels so not sure when I'll find the strenght to start murdering again after the new batch is labeled.
Added: you’ll love the $500’s radiant is nice once clean and it’s heavier than the $100’sMy mint hundo's are nothing less then spectacular...my 2 racks of $500 have touched Belgian soil as we speak.

Murdering +3000 chips...THAT was the hard part (1200 of those were the same chip)That’s a lot lol.
I had a couple of spares so I murdered them last night just to see what it would be like. They were a breeze with some NPR, way easier than I was expecting.My mint hundo's are nothing less then spectacular...my 2 racks of $500 have touched Belgian soil as we speak.

I'm in the "finally getting around to it" boat also.
Trying to decide if this is sufficiently playable to keep or if these racks go into the sale pile. Leaning towards the sale pile.
120 / 120 / 120 / 100 / 50 (5s/25s/100s/500s/1000s).
Think could play t10000 with this and 12/12/7/5 starting stacks, but would color up with 500s - never played with that breakdown before.
I think i have too many chips to keep these....
Rack marked chips I soak in hot water for 5 mins with max force oxy or crystal, whatever oxy you want and I use a dental scrapper to remove, circular motion medium to light force only. Once you try you’ll see how it starts to remove it.I'm rounding the bend on having these all cleaned, and it makes me pretty stoked.
I have a few (less than ten?) ones that are rack-checked to heck and back - has anyone got any tips for attacking these chips, or are they mostly a lost cause? My ultrasonic plus scrub brush doesn't touch the marks, and the Magic Eraser doesn't do a whole lot either. Even with elbow grease, it seems like some of it has become one with the chip/inlay.
I did also have a few $500s that did the discoloration thing during the wash cycle. I thought for a bit that it might be a surface issue, but various approved (and unapproved!) scrubbing techniques makes me think the clay is pretty much discolored.

Paulson used gold, tantalum, tin and tungsten in their flecks. So one or more of the three T’s metals.Does anyone know what metal is used in those 100s?
Awesome, glad it's not an L metalPaulson used gold, tantalum, tin and tungsten in their flecks. So one or more of the three T’s metals.
