Hey Paul, not sure of the price point for individual chips, but here's an ad for a $25 chip for about $9 shipped. Since I seldom see these, wanted to share.

Thanks for the heads up, but I'm pretty set on $25s, and I have an option available to acquire another couple of racks at a lower price if I decide to get more.

ok, ok.. have a rack of the $.50s inbound
... and what else.. hmm... 
updates next week
And not that you're ever selling, but I think it makes the set more marketable.ok, ok.. have a rack of the $.50s inbound
I'm sure I'm more of a douche about it than most people, but whenever I see somebody selling 800 chips from Casino X, I look at it and think, no, It's actually 700 chips from Casino X plus 100 relabeled fakey fracs.
OP
OP
If I ever did sell, I predict the $.50s will still be unused and mint
Get your point, but can't say I agree with the more marketable claim (at least when talking about this set specifically)
obviously if chips are not from the casino.. they are not from the casino, but nice inlay replacement "fakey fracs" might be as or more valuable.
And no fracs included IMHO would certainly not hurt this set's resale value (at least with the majority of prospective buyers). It would just be a 1/2 set.

true.. interpret "completed" as "put together a playable set"

yeah, the fracs are almond (I believe).. bit of oversaturation on the photo
This might show a more accurate color of the fracs

Lol. I've been "completing" my Riverside set for years.Congratulations on "completing" (what does that mean?)
Holy crap!!!! Did you find more $1s and $5s recently somwhere?yeah, the fracs are almond (I believe).. bit of oversaturation on the photo

yeah, the additional $1s and $5s just arrived in the last week.
I'd love to hear the story on how this set started, and how you completed it.
OP
OP
I also found out there are 2 versions of the $500 and I was able to acquire 1 secondary (or primary maybe? - the chip on the left in the below pic) .. very cool.. will take better individual pictures soon

Does that suggest there's an entire hoard of secondary chips hiding somewhere?
OP
OP
Not that I know of... the person I got the single secondary(?) $500 from did not have any quantity... RVCL is like PNY in the sense that neither version (primary or secondary.. or tertiary in the case of the RVCL hotstamp $25) were ever put into play as the casino cruise failed to launch. Found out alot of backstory on that as well over the last year when looking for these.
So all chips would have been in mint condition from the start (hence the difficulty in telling which is primary vs secondary).
OP
OP
I think I'll take better pics and do a write up about the casino and my search at some point.
It basically started when I was able to purchase some $25s from @BGinGA a couple of years ago... and started looking for the $1s and $5s (to no avail until this year when I redoubled my efforts)
Who knows,but probably not many. There are a bunch more $1s and $5s in Kentucky, being used in some lady's charity cash game (I'm guessing at least 1000 chips or so). I was unable to get contact info from the guy who picked up the rest of the chips she had (1,400 total - 900 x $25, 300 x $100, 200 x $500) along with several pallets of gaming tables and other equipment. Most of mine are now reunited with their smaller-denom siblings at softchewy's place.
Two racks isn't enough?I guess it's ok. Would be better if you had more $500s.
:That's just the cash set portion. He has a tourney set, too..... (y) :thumbsup:
Just an educated guess, but here's what I think exists:
200 x 50c
700 x $1
1000 x $5
700 x $25
200 x $100
200 x $500
---------------
3000 primary chips
Plus at least four other "non-primary" racks: 2 x $25 (one inlay, one hot-stamped), 1 x $100, and 1 x $500. Could be more.....
