Gambling Hobby: Casino Chip Collecting- Molds
The main reasons chips are given molds and inscriptions are 1. The mold defines the place in which the chip originated and 2. Molds help prevent counterfeiting. The unique rim design is called a mold. The casinos name and or logo are called an inscription.
The distributor of the molds guarantees casinos that no other person would ever have the same design.
Molds and inscriptions are used in casino chip collecting as a way of defining all the casinos one has visited. The different chips are interesting in themselves; they each have different designs, colors, and denominations. No two chips from different casinos will ever look the same. |
