I have seen them used in the traditional sense and they were just fine. I would suggest that you get the ones that are not stickers on poker chips but the ones that are actually apart of the chip. At my last unit we used them as incentives. They were given out by the BN leadership to all the company teams and you were allowed to give them for whatever you felt warranted one and after receiving three, they could trade them in for a 4 day pass, COA, or a unit t-shirt.

I agree, the full processed ones are the way to go vs. cheesy stickers. Interesting use as an incentive with various options. Poker chips seem to be the economical way forward for command teams since the Army is on again, off again with paying for them because of abuse.

Yes, poker chips are used in Wild Tornado, a popular Australian online casino. WildTornado casino is known for its fun and exciting gaming environment, with the ability to play games in https://wild-tornado.casino such as poker and blackjack using their very own custom chips. Wild Tornado Casino's custom poker chips are made from durable ceramic material, ensuring that they last longer than most traditional plastic chips on the market.

I'd suggest you use the tags "Challenge Coin" for this. Also, though I don't have a poker chip or experience with the purchase or pros/cons, I can suggest you check out a few older threads:

Best of luck.

Thanks, I 'll check out the "unique" one...the first one was of no use, which prompted my question.

I've received both. I like them both. Prices for the "traditional" coins are really getting stupid, and the poker chip style is kind of cool IMO.
Besides (again IMO). It's not what the coin is made of its what it is given for.
