The last six chips are ceramic chips that were sold for home game use in the early 2000s. I suppose they could have later been used at a casino in Moscow, but it does not seem likely.
The six ceramic chips were produced as part of an early group design project by forum members on TwoPlusTwo.com, who were later were some of the first members on ChipTalk.net. I bought some of the chips. Still have them. This would have been between 2000 and 2004.
Also in the first row, the third chip has a reverse image of the MGM lion logo. I can't read the letters behind the heel, but MGM registered their design. It could be a MGM chip, but I can't find an example of the logo reversed like that. That may have been an attempt by someone else to avoid a copyright complaint from MGM.
