Re: From the collection - Foreign Chip Pics (lots)

Tim

Very Nice collection!!!

Just a few notes from an avid Caribbean collector...

We call the Antigua chips - simply that, Antigua, not West Indies.
West Indies is a series of several islands of which Antigua is part of.
So, Antigua is the country. Generally speaking someone will say they just got back from Antigua, not the West Indies.

The chips you have listed for the Netherlands come from the island of St. Maarten/St. Martin.
Half French and Half Dutch. The Dutch side is where the casinos are located.
So I would categorize those chips "St. Maarten" (the dutch spelling).
The Netherlands could be one several islands - just like "West Indies".

You have the American Aruba chip listed under your Curacao heading of chips.
