Restoring Old Drilled Casino Chips | Fun Project!

Today I've got a fun new project that I'm working on with some chips that I recently acquired. This is the first time that I'm doing this sort of project, but I think it'll be a fun one and it'll help me appreciate these chips that much more. The plan is to take these chips, remove the labels that are currently on them, clean them up so they aren't dirty anymore and then filled in the center drilled hole. After that is done I'm going to relabel them with laminated inlays that will look similar to the original $5 inlays that were on them. I'd like to make them as close to the originals as possible, but I'd also like to make sure that they are slightly different in case these chips would be sold in the future people would be able to know that they aren't original undrilled chips. The plan is to use these in a TRK set in the future which I believe they'd make the perfect fit. Hope you enjoy!
