message: Metal or plastic only? I thought they were made of clay. -- Mikeblas 03:54, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Metal and maybe plastic - I don't know for sure about the plastic.  Tokens are not clay however and much of this article needs to be re written - in other words tokens are tokens and chips/cheques are something else entirely i.e. clay, ceramic and sometimes injection molded plastic such as Bud Jones.  All the items in the displayed image are cheques not tokens. See poker chip for accurate info.--Elij 01:40, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Casino chips are made of a combination of a special clay and composite plastic which gives it a stronger durability and can be cleaned easier. 68.162.12.124 17:58, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

text: According to a investigative report done in November 2007 by KNXV-TV the local ABC affiliate in Phoenix, Arizona, click here casino chips also contained about 47% lead which is heavily disputed by many professional chip collectors who say that casino chips do contain lead but not as much as KNXV is leading its viewers to believe and in a letter sent out by Gaming Partners International one of the largest manufacturer of casino chips starting in November 1998 they reformulated the chips to only have 50ppm or 0.05% weight of lead content.

thread_title:  Clay? 

message: The information in Poker chip seems better suited as a sub-section of this article- it's linked to in the first paragraph in a similar fashion as Token coin, but it seems as if "Token coin" is a general article, while "Poker chip" talks about casino use only. 130.101.31.26 04:19, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge 

message: "In addition, with the exception of Nevada, casinos are not permitted to honor another casino's chips." Actually the Connecticut casinos Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods have (at least in the recent past) honored each other's chips. Chips with a value of at least $100 can be exchanged at the cashier's cage of the competing casino.  --Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.120.52.177 (talk) 21:01, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed some of the state-specific color-value mappings from the "uniform colors" table.  Yes, there may be some places where there's a legislative standard for fifty-cent or twenty-dollar chips, but there are also some standard colors - like red $5 chips, green $25 chips, black $100 chips - which are common to many different areas.  I think a table of standard values is more valuable than basically a collection of trivia of all the different chip colors we can source.
$1000 is orange in Illinois and Atlantic City, yellow in every Nevada casino I've been in, but at least those are vaguely similar colors.  Starting at $5000 I don't think we can say there's any consistency at all, it's gray in IL and NJ, brown ("chocolate") in Vegas at Caesars, Rio, and Wynn, and red-white-and-blue ("flag") at Bellagio...

replies: text: Casino token →  – WP:COMMONNAME. "Casino token" should probably redirect to Token coin#Slot machines, which seems the more likely primary topic for this term. 162 etc. (talk) 02:56, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: A poker chip is essentially just a casino chip used for playing poker. "Casino chip" is the broader term so it is a better article title. Rreagan007 (talk) 20:02, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
