Educate me please... (1 Viewer)

[Parrothedd]

I apologize in advance for what is an admittedly embarrassing question, but could some of you educate me on what the numbers mean that I often see people use when referring to certain poker chips? Sometimes I'll see a poster say something like "Paulson 312", etc. I assume the numbers are a reference to the edge spots somehow, but I am not sure. I looked over the Paulson resources here, and Googled it, but I did not find what I was looking for.

Thanks!

Here you go...



I need to update the new edge spot charts in the Resource section with the names.

312 would be 3 x 1/2" spots.

Perfect! Thanks Tommy!

In general, the first number is the quantity of spots, and the second number is the size of spots: 312 = three 1/2" spots, or 418 = four 1/8" spots. From there is gets a little more complicated, with D double spots, etc.

The "P" numbers (P18, P33, etc.) refer to Paulson's edge spot chart (posted above by Tommy). Those GPI identifiers also have numerical equivalents typically used elsewhere (and also referenced on Tommy's posted version). Example: P5 = 312

You came to the right place for answers!!!

I updated the new charts with names. #34 to #48, I'm not 100% on.
If it's wrong or you see any other typos, just let me know and I'll fix it.
I made my own name for #35.
HC = half circle. (I made that up too, could be correct though. )

Thanks

35 is crazy. Would be interested to see an actual chip.

@Tommy You ever see a chip like #35?

Nope. Would be nice to see one though.

We must start a search for the infamous "Six Pie Flower"!!! Even a pic would be nice so we know it actually exists!!!
