Sorry about the lack of communication, Michael. I went on at great length on this board about my trials and tribulations on aquiring these chips awhile back. The 1 (V3375 except I'd call it white), 5 (V3377) and 25 are ON THE TABLES and "called" Canadian. They are sold for 70% canadian. That means $100 Canadian will get you $70 in chips. They are redeemed at the cage for "66% Canadian" which means that same $70 in chips will get you $66 American cash. (These percentages are subject to fluxuate with the exchange rate.) They are played for American face on the table, which means if you bet a 5 chip at blackjack and win, they pay you with a regular house $5 chip. The hardest part about aquiring these chips is they don't want to sell them for American. To get one of the 25s, I have to go to the money exchange and pay 77%. $40 Canadian costs me $31. For that I can get $28 in chips.
