Somewhat NCR: 12.5 cent poker chips?

I play a home poker game with some guys for very low stakes. We have a set of non-demon poker chips and we constantly struggle with using 5c, 10c and 25c chips, or to mix it up a bit, we play 12.5c, 25c, 50c. Some of you may raise your eyebrows at a 12.5 cent chip (aka one bit), but I think the idea of a 12.5 cent chip has merit.

Anyone else out there use 12.5c chips in your home game. Were there many 12.5 cent chips ever used in a casino?

There used to be 12.5 cent (one bit) used in real money way back when, so why not use this denom in poker games? Saves you from having to stock a ton of 5c and 10c chips.

I'm thinking about getting a custom 12.5c chip made by Nevada Jacks to go along with my low denom Desert Sands ceramic chips that they make.

Who else here uses 12.5c chips in your games?

It would be a '1 bit' chip (8 bits a dollar)
