.....winner of the 6 chips is Barry Hauptman with a guess of 2007 chips. Thanks to everyone who took part in the contest.
The actual total was 3725 chips, yes 3725 chips !!!
The breakdown is as follows:
Purchased at Doug Saito's Auction, the Superbowl Show and from antique shops - 125 assorted chips.
Purchased a large collection of Roulette and assorted chips from a Northern California collector - 2808 chips. I had to send these home via UPS - 90 lbs. of chips in 3 boxes.
Purchased from a chip dealer in Southern California - 86 assorted Roulette chips.
Purchased from a chip collector in Las Vegas - 161 assorted Roulette chips.
And last but not least, I harvested - 545 Roulette chips from 22 Casinos.
Once again that is a total of 3725 chips of which approximately 495 chips were added to my collection and the rest were acquired for re-sale and trading.
My wife says I am a very SICK person and I really can't argue with her.
I really enjoy being retired and I really enjoy this hobby and all the people I meet along the way.
Take care and good night,
"Mr. Roulette"
