Does anyone know of other casino chips that use the same mold as the Condado Beach's? I know the $1 chips are too hard to get much less in any quantity. So I would be interested to know of any other $1 casino chips that are using the same mold.

Thanks

The hat and cane mold? There are lots of different hat and cane mold chips.

Like the Condado's, not the classic TH&C but they would work.

Thanks

It is on the current $1 chips at The California, The El Cortez, and Fitzgeralds.

The older Riviera rack had them as well, but now they use a house mold.

Not sure what others, but it is pretty common.

That is incorrect, the mold is different. There is no recessed inlay on the Condado's and they weigh a lot more. Plus the inlays are shaped.

The "mold" usually refers to the impression in the chip as far as I know. I think that is what people are refering to in this instance. The weight has nothing to do with the mold, nor does the shaped inlay.

True but the mold is still different. I have a set of classic TH&C's and some samples of the Condado's and they aren't the same. I'm having a hard time understanding why this is even in question? Would like to move on to my original question if possible.

Thanks

Well, the weight is probably attributible to the fact that the Condados are a bit older. Lead shavings, and so on.

As to whether the mold is different or not, I don't have a clue. I wish I had, because that would mean that I owned a Condy.

edit: checked a pic of the condados... isn't that the mold with the longer cain? There are a few th&c molds out there.

Can you post pics so people can see what you are talking about?

At this point my original question is worthless, so I rather just drop it for now. Thanks for trying.
