I have always liked the engraved poker chips with a shiny surface. I'm not sure who made these chips but the design really stands out on the shiny background.

Here are 10 chips that show what I mean. They all happen to feature animals but Dale's grouping meant that some were in other categories.

If you'd like to add these 10 chips to your antique poker chip collection, they can be yours for $50 delivered in USA. Some of these are pretty scarce chips.

The Chained Elephant design that Dale calls Elephant in Trap (for some reason) has a number of varieties and is found in a lot of different colors. You can maybe pick out some of the varieties from the scan above. The other two designs are called "Bully Boy" and "Three Horses".

Thanks again to ArminP for insisting that I would appreciate the Antique Chips as a specialty. I bought the Book and the old poker chips eventually became one of my larger categories. Dale's earlier edition had some dates on some of the really old ones. I think these were all 100+ years old but I can't find the thin version of the book that had some dates in it. I think he decided to remove the dates on the final edition as it was becoming quite a challenge to date everything.
