PCF's Favorite Casino $25 Chip - nomination thread (3 Viewers)

[RichMahogany]

I mentioned it in Post 33 along with Sierra Sid's but I don't see it officially nominated (I'll ignore the limit next time). Here's a pic I stole off of eBay...

*TheChipGuide - TI St. Maarten is a killer too. Wish a pic of an original would pop up.

Yeah I was trying not to use the same pic from eBay but there it is!

Much better pic than the chip guide

I agree! I have the whole edition, quarter through $100 (no $1 as they used silver dollars) and the $25 is the only one that's cancelled. The $25 was a rare and hard enough one to find that cancelled was likely my only option.

I've never seen another one available and have only seen an intact one that's on the Chip Guide.

The quarter shows up now and then on eBay, as does the occasional $5 and the less frequent $100. The inlays are just so nice, I'm sorry the photo doesn't show the metallic ink too well.

According to my chip Rack, if you ever find an uncanceled $25, it’s going to cost you at least $1000. Ouch!

Compiling and collating pictures for voting. Last chance to add a nomination!

Adding a few more…

Is the jack watermelon chip the same colors as the claim stakes 25s? Is that the secret to the jack watermelon chip?

As is typical, anything but an inlaid THC chip is underperforming. I'll have a losers final for the best performing house molds, hot stamps, and scrowns.

Ahh, I think it should be based off of chips you OWN, which many here do. Unfortunately my favorite $25 would not be picked by a single person.

Many beautiful winners in this thread, sorry but a old 414 wouldn't stand a chance! Lol

I think it’s a good one

Top 10 to me

I thought one of the highlighted rules was to nominate ONE or TWO chips. Might have well just attached a link to the chip guide!

Some great chips in this group. I’m a sucker for green chips, so many of these get me salivating.

PCFers are collectively really good at ferreting out the best of the best chips. I reserve the right to ignore people who "spam" nominations, but I usually pick one or two of my favorites from the spam.

I have to see side profiles to decide. Preferably stacks. Edge spots from the side make all the difference

In a perfect world, I'd have racks of these to photograph. Some of them, though, you'd be lucky to find two at the same time, let alone 10 or 20 or more.

Does anybody have a half-barrel or barrel or rack of Lake Elsinore $25 chips photographed?

[FDLmold]

Thanks @RocAFella1

Love those hundreds as well, hubba hubba

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

Pretty grainy

Found a Lake Elsinore poker vlog and screenshotted a stack.

It was the only probable semifinal chip for which I didn't have a good stack/rack photo. Problem solved.

HSI $25 secondary anyone?

HSI $25 secondary anyone?

It’s an RHC chip. May as well never nominate those. They never even make it out of preliminary voting.
