As many of you know I really like the illegal/UFC chips but have never specialized in any type of illegals. I got chips from all areas of collecting. Nevada, riverboats, indain, illegals, foreign, cruise ships, roulettes, NVC's, poker chips, C&S, etc. They are all in my collection. In fact about the only chips I don't go after are the regular casino chips from AC, CO and the 3 left coast states. (Despite that, for example, I have a 6" binder overflowing with CA chips). I have been searching for an area to specialize in where I can get generally inexpensive chips and yet have some nicer looking ones without worring about there being 20,000 varieties to buy. I thought about specializing in just one mold (smkey and rectangle/heart are two of my favorites) but while some of them are really neat most are pretty plain hot stamps. One type of chip where the records are missing has some really neat samples and that is the old inlaid Hub Mold chips. While I have a list of all of my illegals I never sorted out the inlaid hub molds from the rest of the hubs. In fact i don't know of anyone else who makes an effort to look for the inlad hubs. So why not make that my speciality? Let's give it a shot. What do you have available for sale or trade?
