Blast from the past, just found in my basement Club Cleopatra

I have a cash set of these, excellent chips always love HHR's. There were a couple runs produced, that set (pictured above) that says Turks & Caicos" and another run that says "Trinidad & Tobago". Can't remember which were 1st & 2nd.

what’s your chip breakdown for your cash set?
 
Nice - I remember these. Can't remember the story behind them though. Were these for a casino that never opened? Or a fantasy line?
 
what’s your chip breakdown for your cash set?

100 x .25c generic HHR HS fracs
200 x $1 (Trinadad & Tobago)
300 x $5 (Trinadad & Tobago)
80 x $20's (Turks & Caicos)
20 X $100 (Trinadad & Tobago)

also have 80 x $25 (Trinadad & Tobago to use for when people can't handle $20's

Also have a small heads up tournmanet set.

Most came from this set from @colter ripton

Still never seen a pic of your complete set............
 
Why didn't you go with the Club Cleopatra quarter?

They came with the set I bought. I have a sample set with the inlay .25c but never found them in any quantity on the secondary market. There is also a snapper $2.50 chip I believe.

The HS .25c are great and can be used with any HHR set so no biggy.
 
there are several threads on the Club Cleopatra I have always loved these chips.
 
i just recently received my add-on for my set. Talk to David @ CPC.
Started with the Cleopatra's around 12 years ago.
 
Which came first, the Turks & Caicos or the Trinidad & Tobago?
 
Trinidad & Tobago came first
Turks & Caicos came second

Trinidad & Tobago were originally made for a casino which
for some reason had license pulled, so they never opened.
 
Turks & Caicos were made during Red Ott and Michael Dambach days when
ASM/CPC whatever name they were going by was in Vegas. They were a add-on run I think during C.T, days..
At the time I was told they couldn't use original design inlay, so some changes were made by
,Mike Dambach.. Thus the new inlay. But talking to David @ CPC you can get the original inlay
Trinidad & Tobago now. They also have some denominations that were not in original making
of the Club Cleopatras.

I sent an email out to David, would be cool to have a T10k tourny set.
 
I remember them. Very nice chips. ASM era. I assumed it was their answer to Paulson's Pharaohs fantasy line.

Back then, everybody heard it on the radio:

"Walk like an Egyptian...."
 
Got in touch with David and it looks like anywhere from $2+ to $3+ dollars per chip. Thinking of having a set ordered. Only bad news is, 9 months out
 
Bummer, I wanted a small 400 chip set but have to buy a min of 100 chips per denomination. Anyone want to go in on some Club Cleopatras?

This was my breakdown

120 x $25
120 x $100
50 x $500
75 x $1000
35 x $5000

Should I just order

120 x $25
120 x $100
100 x $500
100 x $1000

If they are Trinidad & Tobago I may want to hop in and add some upper denoms to round out a decent tournament set.

80 x 500
140 x 1000
60 x 5000 (65 to make it to 100 per denom)

may want throw in a rack of .25c too while I'm at it.... :unsure:

Let me check my numbers and I'll shoot you a PM this weekend.

@TheBigTater I have asked David about the T&T's. Just so you're aware, David did indicate it will be around 9 months, are you ok with that?
