From the world of ChipTalk.net, the collecting community is being offered the opportunity to suggest names for a new mold.

Pictured is a single sample chip from a new line of home poker chips, which will be produced by GPI (Paul-Son) in a newly designed mold. The new line of chips will be marketed as "LE PAULSON NOIR" and will be available through Sidepot ( http://www.sidepot.com/ ) via BuyPokerChips.com ( http://www.buypokerchips.com/ ).

No this is not an advertisement, mainly because the chips are not available yet. But I have been in contact with the three principals where the mold came from (a design contest on Home Poker Tourney Forums ( http://forums.homepokertourney.com/index.php ) a Message Board community similar to ChipTalk.net) and I asked what name they or GPI (Paul-Son) have given to the mold so that we collectors can use the name in our catalogues, descriptions and other reference material.

The short answer was "no, no name yet", but why not throw it out to the chipping community and see if they can come up with a good name.

So, here is the opportunity to possibly name a mold design! Of course the mold owner (lisenced to Stephan Aarstol of Sidepot Gaming) has final say on the name selection, but he will be watching this thread with interest.

So, what suggestions do we have? Please post them here.
