| | | real palmas?
this auction looked a little fishy to me. if it's someone from this foum, and it's legit, i apologize.
the seller has a good rating, but i dont think i've ever seen the $100 with the wider spots, at least not in the pics of noel's i've seen. the blurry photos dont help either.
any thoughts? http://cgi.ebay.com/320-Palmas-Club-...QQcmdZViewItem |

They look real.
Those are the U.S. $100 chips, as are the $5's and $25's.
The $500's are the R.D.'s.
The blurry picture really doesn't help. |

I took it and sent it in to that guy at the CCG & etc, and he placed it on the site. It's the only published picture ever taken of ALL 15 original Palmas chips in one location. That $100 with 8 pink split spots are virtually extinct and I have a standing offer of $100 each for them which I'm thinking about taking someday soon. 
Other than that, the auction is legit. |

Other than that, the auction is legit. | Hey Noel, Sorry for jacking your photo... I saved it to my desktop months ago when I saw it, so I could take a look at those beauties from time to time!  |
