Gene you have been around long enough. Gaming looks at these brass chips has a piece of metal what ever you do with them is your business and if you decide to change the color and describe them as reproductions or customized chips they could care less. Nobody is taking them to casinos tring to cash them in. I cant believe i am even letting myself get involved in all this crap about these chips. I collect a lot of things but this hobyy sounds like a dictatorship telling everybody what they can do or not do with their chips...If ignrance was bliss alot of people would be in heaven now.
