I believe the props used in the movie and the 200 chip sets that Cartamundi are putting out feature the identical chips. So it will probably be impossible to distinguish which ones are the 'real' movie props, and which ones are the after market sets, at least with the $5 - $500 chips that seem now to be widely available.
I'm not sure if they will make any of the larger deominations commercially available, but I did see one on eBay ending today that was a $25,000 chip. Since I believe Bond's purse in the game is $10 million, it will likely be these larger denominations that would be used in filming of the poker scenes.
Just my $0.02. Hopefully the chip sets will be popular enough that they will put the plaques up for sale...
