The hexagonal-label $500s are brass-weighted.. you can see the flakes easily. I have 240 of these chips, and roughly 60 are like this..

The non tophat+cane $1 chips have a lighter shade and have different-sized layers of compression molding. I bought these separately [100 of the TH&C chips, 60 of the others]

The gear-label $100 chip is the ONLY of 240 $100 chips with that label. I assume this makes it cool.

I still need lots of scandia $25s. Willing to pay a decent price for them to finish my tourney set.
