Capones Casino Chips - Info Request & Price Check (2 Viewers)

[triplez777]

Hey All,

I'm a poker chip noob and found these at a yard sale. The seller said that these are *allegedly* highly sought after and that her husband would be upset about the sale. This set is 500 pieces with a dice set, feels somewhat weighty (not sure the correct term but almost like a real casino) and has 5 denominations of $1, $5, $25, $50, & $100. A good portion of the chips are still sealed. No cards to be found.

I've found some here and there listings but not much info regarding them. I was wondering if the great minds here could help me out with more info/pricing

P.S. - I snagged the whole set for $5, so regardless I'm happy!

Thanks!

5c/chip?

I believe these were made by RT plastics. My brother has a set of these labeled as Bubsy’s hideaway which he bought in the early 2000’s.

$5 for the set was a great buy

Yup, promotional 8-striped slugged plastic. Can't get much cheaper than 1 penny per chip.

Couple of sales on eBay. Prices are all over the place

Official casino weight is the right term

These are low end chips by almost all standards of poker chip forum. The fact that they’re hard to find doesn’t mean they’re in high demand.

That said, they’re probably better than what most people use in their home games, so $5 is a great deal.
