Take a look at this a one-of-a-kind chip

I guess I was a little misleading in my above statement, as I should have probably put it another way. But I do challange anyone, anywhere, to post a chip like the one above.

This is the story. This $20.00 chip from the now closed Lake Bowl card room in Folsom, Caifornia, looks exactly like the more common $2.00 chip. Same design, same color, same everything except for the additional "0", making it a $20.00 chip instead of the $2.00 chip. The owner pulled the $2.00 chips and left the $20.00 ones. Then pulled the $20.00 ones and returned the $2.00 back in play.

To my knowledge, no one to date in the chip collecting hobby has this chip. This is not to say that no more are in existence, just that they are not readily available. The original owner of the card room will not release them. Another chip like this one will be available for view at the meeting this weekend at Mike Spinetti's home in Citrus Heights by the owner of this chip, Bill O'day.

Oh, yes, the chip is going up on E-bay later today.
