Was there a consensus on whether the Harrah's $100 through $100K were leaded on not leaded? I thought the consensus was not leaded, but I'm not sure where that discussion took place. Or perhaps I just hallucinated the whole thing.

That's a good question. The chips used when the land-based casino finally opened in 1999 were the exact same chips used in 1995 when they temporarily opened. They have not changed as far as I can tell, but certainly they have had re-orders? But re-orders would be for primary floor chips, not secondaries. 1995 chips are very leaded. 1999 chips are somewhat leaded. All depends on color and date of manufacture. If the secondaries date to 1995, lead(Pb) is almost a certainty.

If the scale is correct, they are leaded/weighted. I’ve never seen any unleaded/unweighted 39mm Paulson over 10g.
Heaviest NAGB / FPV chips I have seen are 9.6-9.7

For reference, the Harrah's $100 and $500 both weigh more than RVCL $1s and $5s.
Either way, they are official casino weight

Did OK. Picked up a few racks of the Tachi's to add to what I already have. However, only got a few of the primary Pompano $5k. Would have liked a barrel or two.

I did encounter a few issues with PP having "merchant issues", but just kept re-doing and got all the Tachi's I was after.

Nothing else I really need. Debated on another tourney set, but already have a couple of the ceramic tourney sets - although the Pompano's are nice looking.

Appreciate the opportunity/sale, Jim!

Harrah's Cash chips remaining update...


T100 set - just 1 left
$100 - over 1000 available
$500 - over 1000 available
$1000 - over 1000 available

So there's ample opportunity to put together a nice cash set with one of the best looking $100 chips out there.
Especially for 1/2 no-limit games (if you use the $100 chip as a $1 chip, and the $500 as a $5 chip, etc.)


Sold out:
Sample Set - with 100K chip!
T100w - with a barrel of 25K chips!
T500 - with a barrel of 100K chips!

And for all of those who have been asking (which is nobody), I will take photos and weights of all the chips when Jim ships them.

If anybody bought an abundance of gold starbursts i could use 15 more. I was somehow able to get 85 by making 3 separate purchases but paypal authenticator burned precious seconds.

I'll buy at double cost and owe you a favor in the future.

Jim already weighed them. Not sure what happened to those pics. The 100k is over 16g. Only one I remembered.

Yeah but he only weighed one chip. That doesn't meet my standards. And I'll match colors to the color sample set.

Hey - I bought one of those!

My 1st job was repairing & servicing those! My neighbor owned a Kirby store & he drove me there & back while he pounded Coors. I was 14. The coolest thing was when he let me have one at the end of my last day : ) A beer, not a vacuum
