Just sharing a little information that I`m sure quite a few people are not aware of.
In the scan of the two Playboy chips, Playboy club , London, 10lb greek key mold. The chip on the right is the real deal and the chip on the left are one of thoses that came out in a plentiful amount several years ago. When the abundant supply came out everyone thought they had a real deal and were paying what I paid for an original, approx. 5 years ago, 110.00. Now, you can acquire one of the ones that are plentiful for 10.00 to 20.00.
There is quite a difference in the two chips. If you compare the bunny head on any other Playboy chips from London, you`ll notice that the bunny heads and the thickness of the writting are the same, but in the 10lb chips that came out in large quantities, the bunny head is much coarser, thicker, not as refined, (however you want to describe the difference) and the writting is also bolder. This info was brought to the attention of Tom Stroh , but noooo conclusion of being REAL or a COPY. Both of these chips are in my Playboy collection. Will be posting some of MY Playboy chip/ token collection on the BB from time to time for everyone to enjoy. Thanks, Ron Bayne, enyab@verizon.net
