What are these worth??? (1 Viewer)

[CW23]

I am going to oil a couple and see if they come back to life. Anyone know what a set like this is worth?

Chip breakdown.

Black 25
Green 50
Purple 75
Red 75
Caramel 125

350 chips total.

I think $1.25-$1.50 per chip wouldn't be unreasonable.

I was thinking a buck a chip for Paulson solid hotstamp. But $1.25 to $1.50 wouldn't be out of the question...

The numbers aren't really playable as a set... That hurts the value.

Thanks sir just curious I just bought them at an estate sale. They don’t seem to have ever been played.

Left was lightly oiled.

If they are minty, they could go for $1.50 each, especially if they are leaded.

I sell similar for around $1.25, because I like to go slightly below market value.

I think it will be closer to a buck a chip. Will probably have to split them up due to the breakdown

Any Minnesota residents on the forum?

Might be worth more to Martina Navratilova or Mickey Nussbaum than to a random MN resident?

You’re right. I’m hoping for the random SK chips to pop up, but would probably pass on any MD chips.

One last thing. Anyone know what or where these chips are from?

The top one is from Casino De Juan Les Pins. The bottom one is from the Societe Des Bains De Mer in Monaco.

You're welcome.

So those are real chips.

Very cool.

I'm guessing they're authentic casino jetons (I believe that's what these are called), but I was just reading the words on them. I don't know what either of those places are.

Bottom one is an outdated Jeton from the Societé Des Bains Mer Casino

By far, you'll find the most jeton knowledge and collectors over at thechipboard.

I think someone posted a few very similar chips last year. The Monaco one rings a bell. B&G?

The societies des Bain’s de men is from the big casino in Monte Carlo.
The casino does Juan les pins is from Antibes, France, which is about 60 miles from Monaco.

So I have been cleaning these up and the seem heavy. Is that unusual.

There is a clear difference in these and my Cancun’s.

Is there anything on the chip that would signify they are different?

If they're older (I'm guessing from my limited knowledge, but pre-'90 or so?), they could be leaded.

 

[WhiteMamba1646]

ill take the green and reds! lol

 

[CW23]

Leaded means weighted I assume.

 

[CW23]

Leaded means weighted I assume.

And they are older chips for sure.

 

[Beakertwang]

Leaded means weighted I assume.

A stack of older leaded Paulsons feels much different that newer THC's, like Cleveland Horseshoe $1's.

 

[AWenger]

Leaded means weighted I assume.

It means some sort of lead 'powder' was mixed in with the clay to give it more weight. (It's not a metal slug inside the chips, like cheap plastic dice chips have.)

That’s cool. Thanks for the info.
