I based my personal chip on the design I used for my business card. Since I am the $25¢ collector, collecting $25 and 25¢ chips from all of Nevada, I wanted to use distinctive chips from recognizable casinos. When doing my personal chip, I was able to use the inlays from the chips on my card, customizing with my information. I choose an old mold – HCE – and green, the color of most $25 chips. Both the card and the chip came out great. I couldn’t have done these without the help of Todd Barrett who designed the card and Jim Blanchard of American Standard Molding who did the chip design and production.

I am always looking for chips to add to my collection. If you have anything old, rare or odd, including NCVs, please contact me.
