I've been watching this board for quit a while, but this is my first post.

I'm from Germany and I collect US chips mainly.

I recently purchased a lot of pretty old chips for only 3 Dollars. according to the seller there shouldn't have been any Casino Chips in this lot. But I arready identified 2 illegal club Chips (Merchants Club) and 2 Casino Chips (Jade Palace). does anyone have some more information on those 2 Casinos? I only know that the Merchants Club was an illegal Club but don't know where it was located. The Jade Palace was in Washington State and closed down in the 80s, right? comments on rarity and worth of the chips are appreciated too.

But the main reason for this post was, that after finding those chips I wanted to ask if anyone can spot another Chip in the picture that is not just a private-use pokerchip with initials but maybe a casino chip.

What about the "SD Club" chip for example.

Please comment,
Thanks a lot in advance.
