Card Protecters
What do you use as a card protecter at your local B & M?
I was using a couple of chips from my stack until I got A Darth Vader coin from the Episode III DVD. Its about the size of a dealer button when it is in its plastic cas. Heads is Darth Vader's head and tails is Anikan and Obi Wan duking it out with light sabers. well I thinhk its pretty cool [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |

Re: Card Protecters
I bought a big silver shiny coin in Vegas with a royal SF on one side, and the 'vegas' sign on the other. Unusable though, overhead lights catch it, and it shines in my eyes [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
I use a shiny little rock one of the Luxor dealers gave me now, sort of a crescent shape, and is anyone asks, gives me an excuse to talk about Vegas [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |
Re: Card Protecters
1996 Silver Eagle. It's been with other coins and "looks" old and tarnished. I say it was made in the last century when they ask how old it is. |

Mini Magic Eight Ball or mini Pokey

Re: Card Protecters
1876 French 5 Franc coin found by a friend while out for a BBQ in Grenoble in 1973. Friend was great at finding coins but lousy at squirting lighter fluid on smoldering coals....lost his shirt and most of his hair when it flamed up. <font color="red"> </font>

Re: Card Protecters
Be careful, if you need to go all in the gold piece is part of your bankroll and can be lost.

Re: Card Protecters
A solid gold pocket watch. OK, it's not any kind of gold, but people think it might be. That makes me feel like a big man.

Re: Card Protecters
A rock from Rock City park.. But the coolest one I ever saw was a 50 caliber slug that some guy took out of a moose he shot. The back end of the slug was engraved with the date he shot the moose (In really small letters).

Re: Card Protecters
I always used a brass token that said, "Commitment to Excellence" that I bought at a success store that went out of business.
Now I am using a small Kokopelli figurine that I bought in Sedona Az. |

Re: Card Protecters
I use a 50 cent poker chip that I brought back from my honeymoon...I'm not all that fond of it, honestly, but the wife thinks it's cute and keeps her off of my back about playing, so it works.

Re: Card Protecters
I have been using either a half dollar, a silver dollar or one of my spare chips.
However, last week, I got a couple of sample sets of the American Beauty Chips -- I think one of these will work fine. |
Re: Card Protecters
I use a little black coin with some engraving on it. No idea what it is, has no significance but it is fun to play with. I got it from a dealer that I tip well after I hit a high hand jackpot.

Re: Card Protecters
A $5 slot coin from the Bellagio.
When people here ask me what its worth, I usually say "$270". Then they say: "it says $5 on it". I tell them: "$5 for the coin and $265 to go get it!". Joe |

Right now I'm using a blue craps dice from the Peppermill in Reno. I'm really not too fond of it though, I gotta find something better, maybe ToP?

[/ QUOTE ] So you're saying that someone looks at the coin, sees that it says "$5" on it, and then asks you how much it is worth? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
