They look great! The only thing I would change is to add more edge spots to the $1000 chip. You only have two of the eight sides with spots. I would like to see every other side with an edge spot.

I'm stuck with what you see. They are allowing only two spots on my plaque and octagon for security reasons. Apparently they don't allow plaques and octagons for home sets (I'm lucky I got these approved). And that allows me no leverage for edges. They "threw me a bone" by allowing the octagon edges to now have more than one color. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

And you picked the perfect Ankh, too.

These are incredible!

Very nice!

Any word on what the cost will be per chip/octogon/plaque?

Just curious, how'd you get them to let you have an octogon/plaque for the home set.

I like the looks of them. Wondering about the edge on the plague though. Is it gonna be white with 2 purple spots? If so, I think a matching gold edge with no spots would look better.

peace.

I would like to see the heiroglyphs in stone background on the .25. I like the clean look to the .25, and that background would really make it stand out. You could use the same background on all of them IMO.

I will be adding them to my set regardless!
PS/PS, NO edge spots on the square one. Just solid purple. Is the edge on the 1000 white w/that edge spot? I don't like so much white if it is. Make it the same color as the face with or without edge spots.

I agree with the others about removing the edge spots from the plaque and having a solid edge instead. Other than that, they look great.

Very Very Nice! Glad to see you did the vertical design with simple graphics.

You should complete the effect and have the $5000 written backwards on the back of the plaque. I know it would look silly, but it really stands out to me when everything is backwards, lol.

It crossed my mind right away, but I dismissed it just as fast. I just don't think it'd look good.
