To most of the folks on Ct it is common knowlage that the La coves are fantasy chips.
I purchased 2 racks of the 100's off that seller (how you guys missed the large auctions a couple of weeks ago escapes me) and the reason I did so was not only are they an excellent chip but they are scarce so I do not have to worry about having any slipped into my cash game.

As Jim said many of us at CT are looking for quality sets to play with and I have built a large cash game set of mostly real casino chips except for my 100's and 500's.
My 500's are 6 misprinted casino de mexico chips that I believe I have the only ones in existance.
Fantasy's like the la coves are the only way to get very nice quality chips for home games.
I will post at a later date my cash game set so you all get a better idea.
