I don't know if I'm the worlds saddest man but my collection was started when I was very young when my Dad brought me some gaming chips and antique cards from the Tv series Reillye of Spies.
Since then I've tracked down plaques and chips from Goldeneye,most of the 60s ITC shows like The Saint/Dangerman etc.
Obviously I never use these in play- have some regular chips for that- but does this mark me out as the saddest member of this forum?

No, but it could make you the coolest member!

What chips do you have from Goldeneye? I own several of the $10 Casino de Isthmus (which was used in Licence to Kill and Goldeneye), and had an opportunity to pick up the $50, $100, and $500 originals a couple of years back, and passed up the opportunity (D'oh! ). I saw the plaques available at a movie memorabilia site, but they were rediculously expensive.

Post scans of what you have; enquiring minds want to know!

From Goldeneye I have some of the chips in various denoms- mainly because they were used in Licence to Kill- and 2 of the silver hologrammed Monte carlo plaques.The plaques were expensive at the time and I got them before they had been through dealers who inflate this stuff.
The ITC stuff is a beautiful box of bakelite chips in various *very* vivid colours as well as some distinctive green thin octagonals.It was used in most of the ITC shows whenever a casino/gambling scene was needed..certainly the paperwork shows that it was used in the Saint,Dangerman and the Adventurer.
I've got red and blue tokens from Deep Space 9
I know someone who has some chips and plaques that might be from the first series of Dempsey and makepeace but I'm in two minds as it wasn't that distinctive and could just be ex Casino chips- a comment that probably won't endear me to many on here I'm afraid.
