This design looks really nice. One question though, what is different between the effect on the "Four Suits" vs the denominations? The denominations look flat and a little fuzzy. The "Four Suits" looks 3D and crisp.
Or are my bifocals just dirty?
Oops, sorry! I should have read through all of the posts before posting.
Haha oh no you're glasses are fine, it was my bad I put a different shadow effect on there that just distorted things, plus there's an outline on "Four Suits" that's not there on the denoms. Here's the newer version

I also got rid of the triangles ... I still kinda liked them but I definitely was nowhere NEAR the consensus on that one!! LOL And I added the ZERO in front of the .25 as was suggested. I'm not crazy about it ... but then again ... I like the triangles so ... you be the judge!!
Also I added my 'mark' just below the bottom "Iron Flower". I use it to 'sign' the designs that I do. I tried to keep it subtle and out of the way. If there are any strong objections to it or if it's a deal breaker it can be removed.
If you are going to keep the 0.25 I think you should put the same amount of space between "dot" and the "5" as there is between the "0" and the "dot". Right now it looks like the dot is touching the 5.
I don't know if you need the zero or not. You could put the two options side by side and then it would probably be obvious which one is correct.
This design looks great. You have incorporated a lot of changed since this began.

Have you tried a version with black denominations on all chips? I don't know if it would work but it might be worth a try.
Yep - see what you mean about the leading zero. Possible tweaks:
Increase spacing between the zero, decimal point and the 2 - they look kinda crowded.
Make the leading zero a smaller font size: 0.25
Make the 25 smaller; 0.25 (with the '25' as superscript?)
I'm sorry, but the Zero in front of the decimal is really out of place.
I think it needs to be either .25 or 25¢ (i know there are people who want them to be no currency markings though).
What about placing either a Q or a ¼ on there? Or writing the word Quarter on both sides for that chip only.
I'm not sure what is right, but I know that 0.25 is the wrong way to go.

I like the idea of a "Q" ... never seen that before.
