@ChaosRock - Paulo, are these yours?
Them's purdeh
I love how everyone here instantly knows who's chips are on eBay lol.
Paulo, any background on these? I have a set of the solids, but I've forgotten where they came from. Tnx...
Unfortunately I don't have any reliable background on those Larry... If my mind serves me right (not too often nowadays), those were order by a CT member quite a while ago. I even remember someone a few years back saying he owned the dies, but I just can't remember who it was. I tried to search CT for it and couldn't find anything. I also got an PM on eBay from a guy claiming he has a Cash set of those. He is not a member here btw.
I got the set a couple of years back from @mike32 so maybe he has something more concrete... Maybe @BGinGA knows something about?
I bought the blanks from both Apache and directly from ASM Maine. I had them hot stamped by @cgraham86 and I was happy with the results. I still have a cash set of H molds that I had stamped with the "Dunes" stamp, and I really like those chips as well. AFAIK Corey still has those stamps, plus a couple other old school casinos. I would say adding on is certainly not out of the question.
Oh, I never knew you were the one who stamped the chips Mike!!! Really, really cool!!! And now that I think, it might have been Corey who mentioned he had the dies...
It goes without saying if you want the set back, it's yours Mike...
The colors of the 5 through 100 appear to have been modeled for the most part (5 and 25 more or less as exact as possible given ASM/CPC palette; 100 substituting arc yellow for Paulson's yellow) after the Fitzgerald Reno hotstamped tourney chips, few of which I've seen on the market for some time.
Unfortunately I don't have saved pics and a quick google returns no help. The Chip Guide only has the 100. I'd be shocked if someone around here didn't have pr0n of some kind, though. I always liked that set and kicked myself for not grabbing some when I had the opportunity.

I must have done that subconsciously! I did pick the orange/imperial blue 312 but the green and black chips were the stock 312's that Apache used to sell. I also very quickly (and cheaply) picked a solid gray 1,000.The colors of the 5 through 100 appear to have been modeled for the most part (5 and 25 more or less as exact as possible given ASM/CPC palette; 100 substituting arc yellow for Paulson's yellow) after the Fitzgerald Reno hotstamped tourney chips, few of which I've seen on the market for some time.

The colors work great together and I love the idea of an orange 5.
I wonder if Jim still has old photos of the Fitz chips from when he sold them. @TheChipRoom, anything in the old hard drive?

I actually ended up winning the auction Thanks C/R...I messaged you on eBay asking if I could send a postal money order rather than putting it on a credit card...no need for the wife to know with a paper trail...LOL if it is a problem thats fine .
While we are discussing these chips my plan is to clean the foil and have paper inlays made for them if its possible...Is it?

Congrats Mark! It's a beautiful set for a great price.
I'll sending you a PM on the money order question.
There is no recess on those chips so if you want to add a label, you'd need to mill one. I wouldn't recommend having this done for those chips personaly. And the Stamps is beautiful the way they are...
Please do not mill these! Please. If you want something to mill I have some other chips that can be milled in place of these. I know you purchased them and they are yours to do with what you want but I hate to see a very nice tribute set be milled and relabeled,
Agree with @David O completely. Also, @Mark3466us, it would be fairly pricey to mill them and then have quality inlays made.
Just my opinion, but using them as is would be a much better option.

It's a pretty sick community. Great people, but I wish I had never found this site. It's impacting my life, and not in a good way
