"Perhaps,on the otherhand when there is an overabundance that also turns away potential collectors. I think there is a happy medium somewhere."

How can there be an overabundance of a chip LTD somehere between 500 and 1.000?

"And of course to have as many people see them as possible the chips should ideally hit the tables."

I agree, and I always put some of each issue on the tables. Believe it or not most casinos do. On the other hand the internet allows more people to be exposed to LE's than a BJ table ever could.

I found the Club in early 1995. They had roughly 1,100 members. The members were begging for LE chips. They got them!!! For better or worse, we now have over 2,500 members. LE's, riverboats, and Indian casinos were the cause of the increase in membership.
