I've taken to carrying around my currently favorite chip in my pocket in an Air-Tite type chip capsule. It comes in handy to show people in antique stores what you're looking for if they don't understand when you ask. Or to illustrate my obsession when my wife tells somebody about our plans to attend the "chippie convention" as she calls it. Sometimes I just like to take it out and look at it when I've been away from my chip binders for too many hours at a stretch.
I was wondering if anybody makes a money clip that holds the chip in an Air-Tite type capsule. I don't like the gold or silver metal clips with the rings because the face of the chip is exposed to whatever else it clanks against in your pocket. (And the indentations in those small crowns fill up with pocket-fuzz ) And, I change my pocket-chip frequently, so I don't want the hassle of messing with unscrewing the ring to change it.
Really, I guess what I want is a money clip with one side of the air-tite glued to it, so you can pop off the other side and drop your favorite chip-of-the-week in. Anybody make anything like that?
