Any Nevada casinos have black $20?
This is where the set might get roadblocked and just stay a small cash set. I saw @ADS Aviator get those sweet purple Stardust $20s, but since I have a purple quarter, I don't want to go that route.
I want to avoid hotstamps for the $20+ chips also.

Chip options welcome!
 
IIRC - The Mint $5 was the first Christy / Jones Chips manufactured.
 
Still trying to figure out what $25 fits with this set. I'm looking for 40-45 x $25s to "finish" this set.
Suggestions?

800 piece set
120 x .05 Gold Country Inn - Elko, NV
120 x .25 Baldini's - Sparks, NV
200 x 1 Paris - Las Vegas, NV
300 x 5 Mint Club - Reno, NV (one rack on the way)
40 x 25 ???
20 x 100 Hotel Nevada - Ely, NV

Here's the updated family photo:

Del Web's Sahara Hotel $25 THC would be a good addition, also C&J produced by Burt Co.

Great spot progression between the $5 and $100, shaped inlay (like the hundo), and completes the set with another Nevada casino -- each from a different city. Dump the Paris chips for Jerry's Nugget $1s to finish. ;)

I do really love the Jerry 's Nugget $1 and any Sahara chips.

I was trying to keep a blue $1 for the Cali-ness of the set. I'm okay with switching out the Paris $1 eventually, for something else blue (maybe like the Four Queens QPie?).

And Sahara and Jerry's Nugget are both Las Vegas, so I'd like to avoid repeating cities. (Well JN is North Las Vegas)

That is a great suggestion in terms of spot progression.

I don't see many Blue Nevada THC $1s from non-LV cities either.
 
I like the High Sierra the best- Color, spots, shaped Inlay, different city. All work for me.

Sahara $25 are great chips. Repeating LV would bug me. If not a deal breaker, that would be a good option too.
