$20 Chip of the Day - Pi 1st Issue Roulette

Up today is the 1st Issue Roulette jeton from the Pi, um I mean Paris Casino vbg:

As most are aware there were 3 different types of jetons issued for the lower denominations as part of this series-- the featured plain variety, a 4-half moon variety, and a 3-striped variety. Since I do not own the other two examples (as I have not been willing to pay the prices they command), anyone who has them please post scans to make me jealous vbg.

May your day be both irrational and transcendental. grin

P.S. For your viewing pleasure, I give you the first 314 digits of Pi (Not counting the first 3, and recited from memory, sadly grin):
3.

And my wife still married me, can you believe it? vbg

And now for a small (and very easy) contest, in honor of the day. The first person replying to this post who can tell me the personal significance of the 4198th - 4201st digits of Pi can have their choice of 3 chips from my traders pile gratis grin.
