I have some too.

Question: Are these Bud Jones? They seem to be slightly larger and not as smooth as my other Bud Jones casino samples.

They look like Abiatti. But I'm no expert so it could be something else.

That's a neat chip.

Those aren't Bud Jones, especially if they are slightly larger (40mm) chips. They look exactly like some of the B&G chips I have (see below). You're right, they have a little rougher finish than BJs.

I'd have thought this casino would buy Dolphins (which is a small brand made in Australia), but they sure look like B&Gs. However, they don't have the "BG"mint mark, and some of the Dolphins are made to look like B&Gs.

Hm, that's curious. The Cosmopol chips I have (see above) have "BG" printed on them. They must have switched to Abbiati later.

I'm probably missinformed on the Casino Cosmopol chips. Sorry if I created confusion.

tomb1 is right.

they are indeed made by Dolphin as comfirmed by their website.
They also supply Star City casino in sydney.
