    Picked this new series of Circus Circus chips up a couple of weeks ago whilst in Vegas.

    Not my favorite design by any stretch. CC has had some really cool chips in the past....these, not so much.

    This pisses me off... not because you got these new chips haha But because I was just in Vegas and wanted to make a stop at CC but didn't because I didn't really have any specific reason to. Had I known these new chips were out I would have stopped and grabbed one. Damnit.

    This new version took me a little bit by surprise. In 2018 they came out with 30th anniversary $1 & $5 chips as well as a new version of their $1 chips. If only they would stay as current on the carpet in the casino they’d be on a roll...

    I normally don't collect black chips but I have a feeling this will be the last issue of chips from CC, at least the version of CC we all know and 'love', so I figured I had better get one. I forgot to pick this chip up when I was in there in December when I got the $1, $5 and $25s.

    Special thanks to @FormallyTD for being nice enough to risk body and limb and going to CC to help me out with my collection. :clap::clap::clap:

    CC really made some nice chips on the reissue (besides the inlay). Love the 4v18 on the hundo but wish it was the THC mold too!

    I can only add to my collection if I have played a table game.
    Middle row is custom chips I had made awhile ago.

    First time "racking it up", thanks to one blazing hot shooter, then his almost as hot GF..
    in the background is my silly come out bet that didn't fail so bad this time.
    Yes, I want prettier colors next time, this was in over my head $10 or 15 min.

    Picked up a few chips over the past month for my collection.

    The LV Hilton chip is fairly easy to get but I’m always on the lookout for chips from this era.

    0126C918-31D9-4061-99B9-AF4A3282CAAC.jpeg

    This next chip is a little harder to find but I got it because the one I currently have for this casino is in pretty rough shape.

    D77FE976-3076-4792-999A-D36B1E8DC936.jpeg

    This last chip is by far the hardest to acquire chip I have in my collection. Al Cooper’s Beachcomber was a strip casino that was scheduled to open in 1951 but they ended up not getting their casino license approved. There are only a hundred, or so, of these out there. So glad to finally snag one, chip on the top of the chip be damned.

    Al Cooper eventually opened up Al Cooper’s Polynesia in 1951, somewhere between the Sahara and DI.
