Sorry for discovering this belatedly.
I like most the quarter pie with Lavender and DG Arc Yellow.
The edge spot pattern on the 500 is already the "supreme" one among those not torturing the eye with their complexity, so you can't really go up in complexity; just change the game.
You could make an oversize 44mm, 514-spot too, but those only come in A and Scroll molds.

I like the 1/4 pie as well but not sure it fits here. This is hard!

You could get freaky with one of the quarter pies in this range below but I still like the previous track you are/were on.

I like the blurple base but I prefer not to reuse it, especially since the spots on the closest denom is blurple

Suppose it wouldn’t hurt to mess around with them a bit. Haven’t really considered any of those but who knows, I could end up pleasently surprised

Erik, you're $500 is great, why don't you repeat the same scheme with your $1000? I know all your chips are different, but it's an option:

Yeah it would work but I really want to do a different chip. I should have included a 1k from the beginning

 

[Eriks]

Gonna revisit this project and try to decide. David says I have at least 2 months to order but time flies so I need to get busy.

Here are a few versions that have stood the test of time and have not yet been deleted from my phone. Do we have a winner among these?

#1

#2

#3

#4

#5

#6

#7

 

[Mr_Y3RAC]

I would rank them in the following order:

1: Picture #2 it is complex enough to fit very well into the line up but not too busy to make it look to wild.

2: Picture #5 A little more complex than my previous choice but it still works well imo

3: Picture #1 Dont know why but it reminds me of one of those inflatable beach balls, which really fits the theme and the chip looks unique

4: Picture #4 Also cool, not much to say other than that I like it.

5: Picture #6 I like the base color with the the spots but I just feel like others work better.

6: Picture #3 Its nice but there is something there that bothers me...

7: Picture #7 For me this chip is too simple and thus it breaks the progression. Non the less its still a beautiful chip, just not as a 1k chip

This is just my humble opinion hope it helped

I'm simple. And like #3 or #6, but a lavender base.

Thank you! We think alike, those are my top two as well.

Thank you! So, like this?

I agree, it’s kinda weird. But good weird

 

[Eriks]

I also need breakdown suggestions. As it stands, the set consists of:

$1 - 200
$5 - 400
$20 - 240
$100 - 100
$500 - 60

I will order at least 60x $1ks, 40 towards my set together with a few extras, and then prob around 20 more to offer to existing sample sets out there. I have to order an average of 100 chips per denom. My thinking is:

$20 x 160
$100 x 100
$1k x 70ish

My games right now are anything from 1/1 to 5/5 (SEK), but this is obviously a keeper set that needs to be future proof. And with the current inflation rate, who knows where we’ll be in 5-10 years.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated

 

[Eloe2000]

I still like #5

[OfficerLovejoy]

Maybe first chip with 4 colors to establish the value?

Thinking outside the box, I like it!

I’ll mock it up but no more repeatsies. Will have to change the dg yellow

 

[Eriks]

God damn it. Dg yellow works better than canary and I don’t know what else to change to. I don’t think it really fits though. The chip that is

I used a light chocolate base in one of my sets. Super underrated and underused color IMO

Good Job
I'm not sure if dg arc yellow is the best option here

No, you’re probably right. I was just really set to get it in there in some form

 

[Eriks]

Testing…don’t want to reuse bright white but don’t know what else to contrast with.

 

[Eriks]

I am liking this relatively simple edge spot pattern more and more. I am thinking about going back to just three colors. And also, that for contrast reasons between this and the 500, there shouldn’t be anything blue or blueish in it. Maybe light blue could work though:

@Eriks how did you come up with the idea of carmel ?

Erik, have you tried with dark chocolate instead of maroon?
I cannot check colors right now, I'm at the airport, haha
