ASM chips I got a while back

I picked up 1000 A-mold for myself and had 500 on the horsehead mold made up for my little bro for a wedding present. Don't have pics of his, but posted the proof below. Haven't looked at chip design in a long while... looks like pokerchips.com have stepped it up with their edge spot policy. Love many of the new designs/ color combinations out there!

The front side, an angel over my initials -AML.
The back is an ambigram of my initials over a ying-yang. Can be tricky for some to see, but once seen, it's clear as day.

Here's the proof for the set I gave my little bro for his wedding a couple years back. My mom absolutely hated the idea of buying chips for a wedding gift, until she saw the graphics... then she absolutely loved 'em. We played alot of board games growing up and little bro would pay anything for St. James place (and 500 for the "pretty" get outta jail free card- strange kid)... he seemed to always win if he managed to get it though; selective memory I guess. (side note- moms hates my set and says angels aren't supposed to be sexy, lol -but likes the reverse side)

Very nice chips! I would like to see a close up of the ambigram...

Oh and welcome to CT, Enjoy!

here are the jpg's used... (created with adobe illustrator) the ambigram is easier for most to read when small, as on a chip you have to look close to see the detail... when enlarged, many get lost in the detail and have trouble seeing it all at once.
