| | | prize and bounty chip group buy?
My wife suggested a group buy of "prize chips." Probably chipcos that say something like poker tournament winner, or runner-up, etc. I think she has been watching Celebrity Poker Showdown and likes the "golden chip" they get when they win.
If we got 20ish people to put up $30-40 each, we could get 30-40 winner's chips each (enough for a lifetime or at least several years). The chips would have to be fairly generic, but it might work.
What do you think?

| | | Love the desperado theme on the bounty, or, headhunter chip, as we call them at my tourneys.
Id be down for some prize chips as well.

L | That's cold man 
OK, here's my take on it:    
I was still working up a few other ideas (borders, chipstacks instead of trophy etc.), but I cracked under the pressure & had to post these! Feedback please.

BTW - Please cut me a bit of slack for the delay, I'm pretty swamped working on 'other' projects!  |

| | The bounty chips are great! I like the one on the right more. I'd be ready to get some of these, and I wasn't even planning on getting any bounty chips!
The tournament ones are pretty good too, but really want a coin for that...
Thanks for doing and posting these.  |

edit: oh yeah... those look cool! I'm holding out for bounty coins though, I've contacted crownawards but haven't heard anything for a week. I'm gonna call this week and have them send me some samples of the different finishes.
Zinc alloy coin, 1in x 3.5mm are 1.69ea @ 250, 1.19ea @ 500. I'll find out how much the 1.5in (about the size of a poker chip) are. They also have cheaper iron stamp ones but I'd go for the zinc.

| | | I like both bounty chip designs, probably the right side one better. I think it should say 'Bounty Paid' on it somewhere so people know its a bounty chip. Could you maybe add that text curved around the bottom half like you did with the Wanted up top?
