Poker Chips as trophies.

There was an old thread on here when a group buy was started to make a tournament coin and a bounty chip. The bounty chip made it, but the coin didn't. You might want to do site search for that thread and see what kinds of costs the group was looking at and what site they were dealing with.

Who knows with little luck and new leader the coins might become a reality!

I've got an idea - Why doesn't a guy buy some paulson Pharohs, then get some custom labels made up by Jason or something . . .

That way it can be more personalized - instead of "1st Place" it can say 1st Place, Hugos Poker Final, Season 1 or some crap like that. or 2006 or who knows.

If the game is in the same place most of the time you can get a plaque with a lot of metal tabs to engrave.

That way when someone wins they can have it on a list of all to see. It takes up little space and they can always point to the plaque for bragging rights.

If just feels cool to have you name hanging in someone else's place.

what was the cost and quantity you needed to order?

Daniel · #16 (**permalink**) 02-20-2006, 06:12 PM

The full breakdown is at their website...

There is NO, i repeat, NO minimum order....(albeit the price is a bit more expensive for anything under 50)...

however, the turn around time is excellent (especially given my last minute purchase and need for this friday delivery)....

If you have questions, visit the website for more info or email Gene @ the website, he's a cool guy and very helpful....

Like i said, i'll post a pic when i get my "bachelor party" chip in...

late,
d

You could also get a custom engraved bracelet like this. Sounds like a cool idea.

I've heard of some guys getting those medical bracelets engraved since they are cheap.

interesting...

wonder if a jeweler can somewhat replicate the WSOP bracelet?

hmm....a cheap version of those would prolly sell like hotcakes to the home market...
