Man I love red and green $1s!! So damn confusing for people! Lol

These pots can really mess with the brain!

Fun just to listen to people go... "oh, wtf... a red $1" over and over

But the Veterans have no problem adjusting! Photo of @k9dr stack final night of the memorial day meet up!

[HaRDHouSeiNC]

These are live so definitely not 1 of a kind chips, but good luck piecing together a barrel with sharp edges.

Ummm
Confusing

 

[Ben8257]

Damn though I shared this one a while back... guess not scrolling through the thread!

McPhillips Street Station fracs from Winnipeg, Canada

Also just finished today a full barrel of Artichoke Joe's "Poker Room" RHC quarters. May be more out there but never heard of anyone building a barrel of the RHC's.

Took 3 days and some of the worse chips I have ever cleaned... but I got em done! Look just like the rest now!

Perfect WSOP T500

 

[anstossfreak]

Perfect WSOP T500

No, not perfect. The T100 has 2 colors at the 8V spots and the Westward Ho NCV has one colored 8V spots.
I use the Olympic Games 1984 chip for my Binion’s WSOP T500:

Same grey base chip I think.
Either way works for sure

Love the red $1.00 chips from the Palace in Hayward CA … I bought 2 barrels of them back in 1999 directly from the card room . Beautiful chips !!!

 

[Ben8257]

Took me almost 2 years for this barrel. Top one is not cleaned when I snapped the picture!

Thank you @David Spragg ! Been hunting that last single and now two have come from the UK... pretty damn awesome. Maybe not one of a kind, but never seen another

 

[BamaT8ter]

Anyone else have a barrel of these?

bounty chips?

They are win cards.
Originally was going to use them as bounties for the PCA tournament set. But I also have custom bounties for those lol

Looks like you need one repayment, sun damage or different run? Beautiful barrel sir!

Ha yep, not sure what happened there. I think it's a different run because I've seen a few of them.

Post your "one of a kind" BARREL. Must be a real casino not customs. You can post more than a barrel but less than a rack. Land, water and non US are welcome!

Only full BARRELS (20 chips), no partials. I bet that there are really not that many truly one of a kinds out there.. Prove me wrong!

I am positive that no other barrels exist. Only 105(?) made. I got 100 of them and still have 37 of them.
The only reason these exist is due to the generosity of my late boss and friend Gene Trimble.
It is hard to believe that this July will mark 5 years since his passing.
Rest easy my friend.

I doubt some of these are unique, but these are what I had at hand that fit the criteria.
I don't collect barrels or racks, or playing sets for that matter. These just somehow accumulated.
I am one of those dinosaurs who collect single (what you young-uns call samples I guess) chips from that other forum. So these will likely end up for sale here when I am eventually qualified to do so.
Peace,

That costs $20 to $40 per chip now

Yeah, I think I paid $7 for the first one I had, which seemed outrageous at the time, even for a cool card protector. Oh well.

I purchased all of those at $10-$15 and a handful of them were gifts, so it probably balances everything out to $10 per
When they started getting out of hand I told myself a barrel was enough for whatever purpose I chose to use them. I'd hate to mill them, but also not a fan of label overs. So, undecided on their future at the moment
