Fantastic pics!!! And that stack of 5000 plaques is making me swoon

Have to ask... I really love that you did a primary and secondary 5000 chip..... but what's the third one for???

For the third $5,000, I've never been totally satisfied by the two first shots, the labels were too bright, compared to the inlay of the real chips, so had to do a third try with darker inlays, they were way better imo. And then I finally found those 10 $5,000 plaques.

The blue 5k's are pretty stellar. What chip is that?

And seriously, if you ever decide to let those 5k plaques go, I beg you to hit me up. Been hunting for those for years and have only managed to shake 1 of them free. Although, I'm pretty close to a full 'rack' of 1k plaques

Looks like FLV 1's? https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/fabulous-las-vegas-1s-1-rack.71281/

The blue chip's the FLV $1.

Unfortunately, I've sold the whole set.
I wish I kept a small cash set.
I owned many Empress chips and sets during 4 or 5 years but never managed to get $1 chips in excellent condition.
A short time after I sold the set, I was offered a rack of mint $1 secondaries...

Is it somewhat telling that the new guy really likes these in particular? Don't really know what I'm looking at and not yet down with chipper lingo, chip types, materials etc. These remind me of the Port Royal 'value ceramics' I can get from Jack's Poker here in Australia.

I just went down a rabbit hole of finding out more about these chips. They are live casino chips from France, manufactured by B&G, premium plastic?
I didn't know 'premium plastic' was another type of chip. Already spending so much time wondering if it's normal to like ceramics so much. Contemplating ordering samples of Paulsons/TRK just to know the difference, and now I see these B&G to confuse me even more. This world is too vast for me...
