Here they are, my recent "acquisitions". ALL available for "the right trade". I've got dupes on some of these, however, pictured are the most complete sets I have; so offer accordingly... Which leads to the question, what does Keith want for these Babies?
-desirable, collectible Hard Rock, Palms, Luxor items. Chips, slot cards, room keys.
-AIR TITES: Direct-fit, the size that fits Hard Rocks perfectly (no foam ring on outside). I have a problem paying good money for clear plastic!
-CASH: I'd prefer to trade, but if you don't have what I want, you should still be able to play, right? I'll just use the cash, to git-wat-I want!
-Future Mega-Lottery plays: dollar-based, on my approval.
-Drink tab credit at SPLASH BAR!
*If I'm wrong on the description of any of these chips, please correct me! THANKS!!!

Optically-read Bally Mindplay samples chips. This technology is in-play at the Tropicana (and other locations), and is competing against the RFID chip technology.
Reversed $1 white, showing common back.
*Note the larger $1K and $5K chips - extraordinarily difficult to obtain... I've only got one other set, but this set contains the only $5k chip I could snag.

For comparison: last year's $25 on left (shiny gold doesn't scan well), current chip on right features less-shiny silver, and various print & edge changes. ***UV COLLECTORS: New versions feature beautiful Bally scrip logo, repeating all over surface! WOW!!!

Heavy, high quality employee-type pin - most print on edges doesn't scan - looks like print on newer chips. Cloisonne-like=NICE!

NICE fractional - my only example. Edge is solid, same color as front edge. Really nice chip!

Edge embedded with white diamond shapes - SWEET ROULETTES! My only set.

-Front

-Reverse: Matsui - Japanese company, with a chip factory in Korea. Startlingly fantastic edge-work! Nice surprise for UV collectors: most feature "M" logos that change color under UV light... Note the two larger denom samples...

-WHO is currently pushing metal core chips?!?!? Note the one on the right: intricate metal integrates into edge design = NICE! John Huxley shows a similar chip, I believe theirs is made by Matsui (this chips manufacturer)... If you want it, it's gonna cost you - I REALLY like this chip (it's satisfyingly heavy)!

Nobody in the PGIC booth could explain these to me, so I snagged 'em! "If in doubt, grab 'em!" If I attribute this quote, heads will roll...

Various PGIC (Progressive Gaming International Corp.) RFID chips - right shows reverse side.

Some of the nicest roulettes I've seen, and I think they have RFID chips inside! PGIC was showing an RFID roulette table!!!

Here is a unique opportunity! These chip-shaped pucks will blink rapidly (white dot in middle is an L.E.D.) when they sense they are being "read" by the RFID antenna under the betting spot. SO, the salesman can wave this around, to show where the RFID chips would register on the layout. There were various colors of LED output, but I don't know how to activate them, unless you are at an RFID equipped table!

One of PGIC's propietary games, non RFID.

Australian company, with a bizarre poker game dirivative.

The old classic - now with RFID (chip-soft).

*Don't ask how difficult these were to obtain! Please note, now with RFID!!! The Dido chip is not included, it is shown for size comparison. If you have the larger black plaque from this series, I'd like to discuss a trade!

THE NICEST PLAQUE, I'VE EVER SEEN!!!
