Error Chips??? (2 Viewers)

[Seeking Alpha Social Club]

I recently started looking more closely at my TR King poker chips and noticed some with errors (or flaws) in them. I have a couple of questions related to error chips?

1. Which of the following makes a chip an error chip (as opposed to just being flawed or messed up)?
   • Wrong denomination value on the chip, i.e., $5 denomination on a $1 chip (bottom 2 white chips)?
   • Label misplaced on the chip (top middle and top right white chips)?
   • Label placed on the chip correctly, but the image is printed wrong (top left white chip)?
   • Edge spots not correctly/completed pressed into the rest of the chip (blue $25k chip)?
2. Are error chips more valuable than non error chips?

Thanks!

I don't have any answers, but wanted to say that those 5s are pretty sweet!

2. Are error chips more valuable than non error chips? It depends.

@David Spragg would know.

Thanks! It was like finding two 4 leaf clovers. I've had these chips for a few months, but don't put them into play. I went through about 800 chips and shazam, there they were.

I searched All-Chips.com for the term error and got a long list of casino error chips with photos and a comment on the nature of the error. Fascinating!
