What Kind of Chips Can I Collect? CHIP OF THE DAY
Welcome to the second sneak peak week of the more than 100 chips from the article I'm writing for the "Casino Collectable News".
I welcome any suggestions, feedback & most importantly corrections.
Here are the What Kind of Chips Can I Collect? Chips Of The Day for 10/2/2012!
* * * * *
There are whole unit + fraction (WUF?) chips but other than $2.50 there are not many to collect.
Here are some examples:
Grand Casino
Reasons to collect....
Location: Barcelona, Spain
Denomination: €1,25 (unique)
Mold: Jeton
Notes/Information: I do not know how this denomination is used but I would guess it is a drop chip. I have seen a few other 1.25 denomination chips.
* * *
Top of the Vine
Reasons to collect....
Location: Lebrec, CA
Denomination: $1.50 (unique)
Closed Casino
Mold: PMSC
Notes/Information: I'm guessing this PMSC (plastic molded slug core) chip is a drop chip from a closed card house in California. I have seen a few other 1.50 denomination chips.

The Garage
Reasons to collect....
Location: unknown
Denomination: $3.50 (unique)
Home/personal set
Notes/Information: I got this chip in a “box-o-stuff” from Von McKenzie so who knows where it comes from. There is a $3.50 chip from the Top of the Vine casino.

If you like this chip what else could you collect that is similar?
There is no way of knowing how many whole unit + fraction denomination chips exist. I am always on the look-out for “odd-ball” denomination chips to add to my collection and you can too.

Thanks for looking - Hello Tuesday!
