Post a pic of your Favorite $5 chip in YOUR POSSESSION (1 Viewer)

[Nanook]

I'm not going to do this with every denomination, but since the $1 thread got quite a few guys going on some nice pics AND $5 chips are probably the 2nd most common chip that lots of us have lets do it with the $5 chips.

Rules:
Any $5 Chip you have in your collection. Real Casino, Fantasy, Custom what ever goes. No Stock photos, of something someone else has.

I will start with this one. I have a few others that I might post too, but this one is for sure right up there for me:

CDI98 $5 with shaped inlay, a true unicorn. I have seen 25x as many genuine CDI98 fracs than I have these beauties. I would almost *kill* to have just 3 more of these chips.

Easy......this pic does not do this chip justice. It is unbelievable in person.

I thought, hmm I bet I have at least one or two of those. A little digging and unfortunately I have the ones with the round inlay, not the shaped ones.

Shaped inlays - Any shape = Yum Yum for me

Hey, at least I should thank you for looking!

Well, lets be honest I was looking for selfish reasons. You said you did say you would do just about anything for a few more. I was hoping I could make some sort of trade

Toss up. I'm starting to realize that I love the hell out of the Avalon Clubs. Also love my blaze orange relabels.

I can't help but be stoked with the way these turned out, so they are pretty much gonna be a favorite by default.

But..... I feel like I should stray from them and make another selection as well. With Detroit being close, mint chips, and the backstory of a casino rebranding that never took place, these are a favorite as well.

I know I'm the minority when it comes to liking these but that's okay, I'm fully aware that my chip preferences are "off" compared to the masses.

The first plastic chip I want

 

[RudysNYC]

A chip from the Havana Riviera, originally built, owned, and operated by Meyer Lansky (the baddest Jew ever born). Fulgencio Batista, who was overthrown by Castro, was a silent partner in the venture.

Pick Hobson's $5, amazing pink scrown! Not a very good pic but what I have

Or this one!

 

[natumes]

Red chips are among my favorites so I had a hard time narrowing it down. Jack is probably #1 and sadly this is the only chip I own of it. Wish I had started down the rabbit hole earlier and gotten in on the original TCR sale. Now they are out of my budget range :/ Cigar and Snifter is my favorite mold, AS spotted hotstamp is gorgeous and my favorite spot pattern, and the CDI $5 is that glorious radiant "red" - I dream of one day trading in my BCC CDIs for 98 CDIs. @Ben8257 that pick hobson $5 is hot, and if I owned any would definitely be in contention.

Not super rare (sure seem locked up though) but I love my LCOs:

 

[mattross1313]

Being new to real / nice chips...I only have one choice in my current collection, such makes things easier for me Cinci HS.
An under rated chip, and the only US casino I've been to.

This one is interesting...
Is this an error chip of some sort?
I have that chip, but it is a $1 & every one that I see in the Chip Guide has it as a $1 also. Several versions were made on different molds (THC, Horseshoe, diswrl) but never with a $5 denomination that I can see.

This was a tough call. I love all my fives. This one that I got from @liftapint has to be my front runner.
