I stoped by Casino Marongo in southern California and noticed that some of the chips are small crown mold. I have some hat&cane chips from this casino. I saw the small crown chips in $1 and $5. I was unable to check out other denominations at the time. The table game staff were unsure about the issue of the chips. The poker room and cage would not cough up with any $2 or $3 drop chips. They said they were not allowed to give them out as there were not enough of them on hand. I am on the road so can not scan the small crown chip. the artwok looks the same. Anybody kno which issue came first??
