Anyone recognize these chips?

Thanks for the help, cross your fingers that they are actually clay...

Can't wait. Look for dates on the boxes (duh, I know).

For that price, you could have a big find. Very good chance you will be lucky.

These are clay chips made for Portland Card by the Burt Co. or ASM.

This is sick. I just got them home - they are circle square mold clays. 2619 of them at first count. There are probably over 1000 blues and yellows, some reds and some whites. Get this - the blues are the only ones that look like they had any use. The rest are basicly like new. They have the letters CEG (I think) stamped on one side and are denominated on the other. There are no dates on the boxes. I need sleep now, but I'll post pics later today.

Big thanks to mspatton and Ten for their help identifying these chips!

Wow, you hit the pot of gold at end of the rainbow. Over 2600 clay chips for $50, what a steal.

Circle square clays for 2 cents apiece!! And they even got the colors on the $1 and $5 right. I want some.

I'm still not sure if i want to sell them or keep them and use them. I'm sure if someone made me an offer that could fund the Egyptians set I've been wanting I couldn't turn it down

If you really want some, even if it's just a few, let me know and we'll work something out.

A yellow $5 is correct? Is that a period thing or something?

Nice find on the older chips. Tried a PM but it's sitting in my outbox.

Just curious - if you decide to sell some off - I would be interested in 400 total:

100 white 50 cents
200 blue $1
80 yellow $5
20 red $20

How much would you want for that breakdown sent UPS or FedEx?

Please let me know. PM or repost.

Thnaks.

Matt
