Not trying to sound like an ass, but I’m not sure why this is even a question. These are real casino, one of a kind, racks that sometimes takes years to put together. Anyone can just “make” a fantasy rack. Let’s keep it to the rules. Feel free to start a fantasy rack thread.
I was not talking about a relabel or custom, was referencing hard to find fantasy chips, like a rack of these, which I have never seen any one else put together, and can assure you one cannot just “make” it and it did take years to put together:

But I will start my own thread I guess.

I've had this rack since they were pulled off the tables right before the 2023 WSOP but never posted. I'm sure there are a few hundred of these out there (thanks to @StevenB88) but I've yet to see a complete rack so here's mine until someone knocks me off.

That’s exactly how I felt about Craig ordering Tina Paulson mold WSOP RIOs (probably with expedited shipping) and posting them here, trying to con us into thinking they’re “unique.”
I just realized that I've never posted my rack of inlaid Monterey Club 50c chips to this thread. There were 5,000 of these chips ordered in the 70s, so it's entirely possible that there are other racks out there. However, since I started collecting these in 2012, I don't think I've come across anyone else with more than a barrel or so of them. If someone is sitting on a rack they sure haven't made it known to me. Unfortunately, I can't recall the exact date I completed the rack, but it took me more than five years and less than ten. I also have a couple racks of the hotstamped 50c chips, but those are somewhat more common and I would be less surprised to find a rack of those somewhere out there. 3,500 hotstamped chips were ordered either shortly before or shortly after the Monterey Club closed (depending on when the club actually closed) and it seems like more of them survived than the inlaid chips.

Pretty sure tens of thousands of those made. I’ve had racks of them over the years. Here’s an example.
EDIT … So these are different inlays but I'm sure there are quite a few more racks out there…

@Tonysquander's rack is shaped inlay, not the circular "normal" 98 CDIs.
Either way, OP requests real casino chips.

Could say the same for many of the chips on this thread. The shaped inlay $5s are exceedingly rare and very hard to find...I know because I spent years constantly searching high and low just trying to put together one rack of them. No biggie, as indicated before, I will put together my own thread where they can be appropriately appreciated.
