Unusual Poker Chips

I’m looking for information, input, etc. on some of the chips in the scan below. The first chip is an old clay engraved poker chip: f. I’ve never seen one like this before. On page 293 of Seymour there are a few others shown, but in upper case letters. Mine appears to be a lower case letter.

The second is a clay engraved numeral poker chip: 18. I’ve seen numbers 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, etc. on engraved chips, but not a number that is not a multiple of 5. If anyone has any others I’d really like to see a scan.

The third chip is a rounded edge (I think the rounded edge inlaid chips are older than square edge chips.) inlaid card suit poker chip. I love these chips and would like to buy or trade for more of them.

The forth chip is a fancy engraved monogram. I’m trying for the complete alphabet in these chips. This will be very difficult as I believe there are several letters in this style that even Robert Eisenstadt doesn’t have. grin Again, I’d like to buy or trade for any extras anyone may have. So far I have A, D, E, M.

The last chip is an inlaid Black W (square edge) in the style of Seymour’s Code PO-AW. Curiously, I’ve only seen the letters L, M, & W in black in this style. This chip is for trade. I’m always looking to buy or trade for inlaid single letter monogram chips in this style. Right now I’m working on the alphabet in white, red, & blue, and I’m only 13 letters short. Eventually I’m going to try the alphabet in every color known. If I live that long. grin

Single letter monogram chips are one of my favorite chip categories. I’ll buy or trade for inlaid, engraved, or hotstamped chips.

Thanks for looking.

Why so few black poker chips
Yet black was chosen for the $100 chip.
