Errors: 10/1150 chips

 

[sleepypiggly]

So the errors are that some alternating colors did not alternate correctly...

Interesting $5 error though. They used a completely different punch to give you 2 more inserts.

Yepp. And that fiver was really speacial with that different punch. All of them stays in the set and in play.
However I am sure, none of my players will not even notice those errors.

I’m kind of bummed there wasn’t a “Three Butt Poker” error chip.

Maybe it was on purpose. They had to know they had something special when the CC hit the presses.

Sorry about the glass glare. Mike Dambach was nice enough to send me these when CdN were made.

Were they rejects or were those some that passed Red's quality control?

 

[slisk250]

I'll have to go through all the EOL secondaries when I have time. I hope I have at least one error chip

Ha! I suppose you have a point. They did not pass even Red's QC standards. Shocking, I know.

I dunno Bert, he may have even tried to charge you a bit more for that custom 'way-oversized' '5' chip. Great display though.

 

[12thMan]

When I have customs made I couldn't imagine how cool it would be if I could have a completely mangled one for each denom, that is very cool @bivey !

 

[Big Jilm]

Cool thread. I have this to offer:

Missing one light purple edge spot

 

[doakwolf]

BS, Paulson don't make mistakes!? Nice find!

 

[BGinGA]

Yeah, that's pretty rare. Don't recall ever seeing any Noir error chips before.

 

[Big Jilm]

The only one I have seen is this one. I think I posted it a few times back on ChipTalk somewhere.......weird thing is, that chip was part of a sample set. My first ever $500 Noir

 

[Mr. Cheese]

Have only two so far

What's wrong with the red chip?

 

[BGinGA]

should be 618-spotted

 

[Puggy]

And with different color

 

[slisk250]

I think that one was a special gift. Accident? @David Spragg

And to top it off, it's on the wrong mold, too!

We did not make those chips. They are BCC.

 

[David Spragg]

And with different color

Your 500 with the missing spot............
Surely the spots are painted on You can see the blue coming through.
Where the spot is missing it looks like either something has been cleaned off, or it has been painted over? Strange........

 

[sleepypiggly]

I think that type of blue is prone to color transfer, so those spots of base color blue on top of the edge spots may be just color transfer from adjoining blue chips.

 

[AfterTheFact]

Mapes $1 missing it's blue spot

Riverside $5 missing a green spot

 

[BGinGA]

It may actually be base color material reinserted (instead of the correct insert color).

^^ may have been referring to the 814-spotted chip that Pasi received (see below). Done on purpose by you guys? Hard to figure how a single 814 chip gets made instead of 614 accidentally....

I don't know how their production process varies to ours but for us to have re-inserted a base color spot like that it would have had to have been done on purpose. The clay would have been nowhere near each other in the factory.
Simple solution on Puggy's. Came up one chip short and someone grabbed a previously punched body without noticing it was 814 and spotted it on its own.

^^ This is simply awesome. Great addition to the backstory on one of the best sets ever produced by your company.

That is one awesome chip. Kind of makes the whole set unique. I love it. Great grab I would say

 

[Poker Zombie]

The funny thing is, because CPC slides in a few extra chips "just in case" the error chips aren't bad, they're extra awesome.

My Zombie mutant chip:

It stays in play, not hidden away in the "extras" box.
