I'm nowhere close to @moose numbers, but here are some pics of my full sets.

Those A- mold hot stamps are awesome....as are the Cincinnati solids. Nice collection!

Thanks. The Atlantic Club chips are from Classic Poker Chips (one of their stock designs). They're not Paulsons, but I wanted a hotstamp set and I really liked those. The Cincinnati chips are 36mm which are just a little smaller than the average size chip, but I loved the colors and bought them anyway. I don't host a ton of tournaments but once I got addicted it was hard to not keep buying sets lol. I think two tournament sets will be my max, but there's always a good chance I'll buy more cash sets. I have a few random racks sitting around that I wouldn't mind making into other sets eventually once I find some nice chips that match.

I am familiar with Classic Poker chips....I have a custom set of solids from them. They have made some amazing chips.

I'm most likely going to get a custom set made at some point also. I'm still working on an inlay design though.

Any dream sets out there? Could be from any casino or fantasy.

Le Cove is my dream set. Pretty sure I'll never own a set though.

The le coves are beautiful, if not similar to the Pharaoh's in colour. I'd love an absolute mammoth set of Paulson PNY only the high denoms. or a mint set of these:

The WTHC are amazingly beautiful imo, but they can be pretty expensive for sure. The entire poker chip market right now is pretty nuts. The prices people pay, like $10+ per chip for some, is just crazy.
I think those are an amazing colour of blue

Those are my favorite color of blue chips, which is probably why I love the pharaoh chips. I'm not a fan of the CDI inlay, and conversely the pharaoh inlay's fantastic. I have a bunch of the quarters as well as the ncv blue's to use as T5k's for tournaments.

The Paulson Pharaohs were the first chips I fell in love with. I bought the CCs from Apache as my first set. After watching chanman score them all I figured I'd never get a chance to own a playable set of the Paulsons ;)

TRK's are the BOMB! Old school, leaded, great colours.

I have fairly large Nevada Lodge set.

I think I have 8-9 cash sets, all are casino sets. 1 tournament set. Yes I have a problem...lol

I'm proud of myself I just sold a cash and tournament set.

Yup, those are beautiful...saw a rack go for 500 though so uhh a set for me isn't likely to happen.

I think I arrived a decade late to this hobby lol

I don't even have the biggest collection of Pharoahs, there's someone out there with over 6000.

While nice I don't have time for those whites....would like the blues to be my $1
Hmmm...I still want to buy these, or I could buy some more Microsoft/AMD stock

Those are a bit overpriced IMO. They usually sell for close to $3/chip or less with the exception of the orange $1ks and blues.

Couple ads for Pharoahs up now but both on the Paulson mold
