There's only one, the one from this auction. I've got a thread here with all of the Winner Clubs shown. There are 3 solids and 3 complimentary versions with inserts for each of four denoms. Just two are missing from the scans below - a purple 5k with tan inserts and star of the set, the 50k black with inserts.  
I don't have a handy shot of the purple, but here's the 50k black beauty. 
edit to add pics of the WCs Quote:

I don't believe it is a true quarter pie...it is the GPI spot pattern of 2 wide inserts common on casino snappers and featured on last years 5K and 25K chips used in the WSOP for the HORSE Championship.
edit: GPI pattern #3 for those familiar with the chart of insert patterns

 Sorry, typo. I'll fix the post. At least I didn't post four of each huh? Quote:

Its not listed in their catalogue, but they have made true 1/4 pie chips. Only if you're special, I guess  Quote:

Not to threadjack, but on the topic of Winners Club chips, were these fantasy chips? Why was there so many versions of the denoms? |

No they were not fantasy chips. They were made for a Korean junket that never opened and thus never took possession of the chips. The chips with inserts/spots (but not the solid ones) have the trio of paulson security features common to higher denom casino paulsons: metal flakes, alpha dot and UV markings.
I'm not sure why they made 3 different colors for each of the 4 denoms, or why there is a solid and spotted version of each of those...but I absolutely love them.
Here's my set...I've added some more since this pic was taken but here it is...  Quote:
