scanner. If you hang around here for a while (or care to look back (explore) the Archives, you will see a lot od discussion about scanners and what is a good scanner to get.

If you look at your Riverside Casino $1 chip, it is a strange shade of white in the scan and I believe it is hot-orange in actuality. Your scanner, as good as it may be for more conventional scanning, does not handle hot and flourescent colors accurately. This same problem is also displayed in the Rainbow 10 cent chip, in that same scan (if I am not mistaken).

Anyway, my point is, it is suggested that you keep in your mind that you may want to look into a better scanner and reasonable ones are under $100 that will reproduce chip colors very well across the spectrum. This gets important when showing others a chip for trade or sale, and also when trying to identify a chip. Also, (and another big topic of discussion here) is starting a database of your chips as early as possible, and part of a good database is having nice, color accurate scans.

But for right now, rest easy that you have an excellent start on a great hobby!

Enjoy!!
