Decisions were made, hard choices followed. Here is the hardest.

This is the only set of these in existence. There is one other similar set with different colors. Painstakingly put together by @Tommy.

259080


60,000 were made and about 58,000 were destroyed. :eek:

About 2000 survived because the poker room manager had them out of the vault and was using them for a private party.
David Spragg and Gene Trimble worked out a deal with the Palms to buy what was left which also included those 48mm Buy-In Chips.

A large portion of the 2000 were sold to one person, and the rest David and Gene kept to sell as sample sets.
I picked up the remaining chips that David had to add to this set.

I will give @MrWitti first right of refusal since he has the other set. Otherwise first person to post in the thread gets em.
 
Yep @41Pickup acquired these from the poker room manager who was retiring and these were given to him as a parting gift an in storage , along with a roulette wheel and other going away gifts.

I was told a different story but it doesn't really matter, its a rare set for sure. When I got them, except for the T10Ks, each denom was missing around 30 chips. I located chips from various people to make full racks again with spares for most.

Great colors in the set. GLWS!
 
So Nice. Holy cow!!! If I didn’t have my money tied for other big non poker purchases this year...
 
dibs if sale falls through for the people ahead of me. Great sale to MrWitti, who I had a great transaction with recently as well.
 
Of course this gets posted while I’m away from the site, slipped through my hands again
