All clay poker chips have some percentage of composite materials in them. The composite materials give the chip strength. A 100% pure clay chip would be extremely brittle and easy to break. Even our casino grade poker chips which have a higher percentage of clay can be broken in half, if you try to break them.
Generally, the more expensive a clay chip costs, the higher the percentage of clay it is made with. It is more complex to manufacturer chips with a higher clay content.
Weight has nothing to do with quality. Our highest quality chips are the 10 gram chips. The weight of a chip is is purely personal preference. Our most popular chips are the heavier 14 gram clay chips.

Cripple Creek: .. Midnight Rose ..
It appears that the Midnight Rose is part of Triple Crown Casinos. Their web site for three casinos in Cripple Creek has a link for Table Games, but it suggests that the Brass Ass is the only one of the three with table games. Did I misunderstand?
I forget that you don't play poker. Midnight Rose has a poker room. Forget that one, I guess.
On an unrelated note, I think that Brass Ass may have replaced Artichoke Joe's as my favorite casino name represented in my collection.
City: Maryland Heights
Casino: Harrah's
Harrah's St. Louis was located in Maryland Heights, across the Missouri River and just over half a mile upstream from the Ameristar that I mentioned yesterday. The casino is still there, but it is no longer called Harrah's. It is not even a property of Caesars Entertainment.
The place was sold to Penn National Gaming last November, with the planned sale having been announced back in May. That was prior to my only visit to the place, and I hadn't even been aware of the casino at the time I saw the questionably-worded announcement. I was so confused by what it said that I started this thread in our forum to ask for clarification.
It was, and I assume still is, a very nice casino, and it is now known as Hollywood Casino St. Louis. Based (I assume) on my having played at that establishment last July, I have been receiving lots of mailers from the Hollywood Casino. I did lose $100 playing craps at this Harrah's in just a 30-minute session – my third losing session of the day – but that doesn't seem to be an adequate level of action to generate the amount of attention I have been receiving from the Hollywood. I'm wondering whether the Hollywood is so desperate for business that they need to keep soliciting a low roller like me.
My souvenir shown below is a white RHC Paulson chip that has four edge inserts, two each in dark olive and orange. The colorful and oversized center inlay has a carnival theme, with lots of Mardi Gras beads, just like something you would expect for the Rio in Las Vegas. The inlay has four scalloped cutouts, very much like the one on yesterday's Ameristar chip.
There is one hidden image revealed by UV light, and I think/suspect it is a Paulson hat and cane logo, but it is so obstructed by the other printing on the inlay that I am not completely certain.
State: Missouri
City: St. Charles
Casino: Ameristar
..I expect all of you are familiar with the Fountains of Bellagio and the smaller water displays that they frequently have in the Bellagio conservatory. I particularly like the coherent streams that they produce in the conservatory that look as if the water is contained in a clear, arching, acrylic tube, except that the height of the arch is variable, and sometimes it stops/disappears. Or sometimes it becomes an intermittent flow, like a dashed line.
I expect that these are laminar-flow streams, and as an engineer, I am particularly impressed with the ability to create such streams and keep them from breaking apart into turbulence. It is an intriguing fluid mechanics problem, particularly when they are able to do it at variable flow rates. The first time I saw a water feature anything like that was in the early 1980s at EPCOT in Disney World.
They have a small but very similar fountain in the foyer of the Ameristar in St. Charles, and it provides probably my strongest memory of this casino. The thing they do with that fountain that particularly caught my eye is when they have two of those laminar streams intersecting and breaking each other apart. It was particularly interesting when they varied the height of both streams, adjusting the point of intersection.
I found this video of the fountain on YouTube. Have a quick look, and you will see what I'm talking about. I don't think I have seen that little trick done at the Bellagio conservatory..
I love fountains. This one appears to be indoors, in an atrium at the intersection of two 'mall' walkways. If that is accurate, than I assume it is easier to set up intersecting streams of water, because you don't have to worry about wind. If you enjoy fountains too, check out the water feature in the middle of the driveway at the CityCenter complex in Las Vegas. It gets lit up at night, and puts on a nice show.

I am excited to learn the GPI is introducing clear and translucent elements to their products. A see through window on a chip is very cool. Check out the see through, 'diamonds' in the green sample chip on this page.
What's with the scalloping? I that the newest, 'thing'?
I don't know how 'new' it is, and I don't know whether it has any purpose other than aesthetics. I remember a few months ago that rdw4potus posted some chips, and I noted that some of them had center inlays with half a dozen or so convex scallops while some had concave scallops like the ones on these latest two chips.
Here's my chip from Harrah's Saint Louis. Like Ameristar, I've visited this property dozens of times, though not since Penn National took over. The layout always confuses me, it's almost like it's two casinos side-by-side. One has slots and table games, the other has the poker area and more slots. I think the second is also theoretically smoke free.
I've never had any luck at Harrah's (or Ameristar), but I think I'm still up from the freeplay offers and airline & car rental loyalty points that these trips caused.
City: Caruthersville
Casino: Lady Luck
According to notes accompanying the MOGH chip catalog, the Casino Aztar riverboat opened in Caruthersville in October 1984 as a bingo 'parlour' – I wonder about the nationality of the writer of those notes. The notes go on to say that the casino closed in June 2008 to become the Lady Luck.
I didn't know any more of the history of this place until I checked Wikipedia, so blame any inaccuracies here on my lack of motivation to seek out a more reliable resource. According to Wiki, when Columbia Sussex acquired Aztar in January 2007, there were lingering issues related to the company obtaining a casino license in Missouri. These issues had arisen in 2004, when Columbia Sussex had agreed to purchase a St. Louis casino from bankrupt President Casinos. The gaming commissioners supposedly were primed to refuse a license based on various problems that Columbia Sussex owner William Yung was having, including an IRS audit and using a corporate credit card for personal expenses.
Anyway, the purchase of the casino in St. Louis fell through because of the licensing issues, and Columbia Sussex didn't want to let similar things block their acquisition of the entire Aztar company. They threatened initially to shut the casino down in order to get the sale to go through. Instead, before being absorbed by Columbia Sussex, Aztar agreed to sell that one casino to Fortunes Entertainment, but even that effort fell through when Fortunes could not acquire a Missouri license in a timely manner. In what looks a bit like a desperation move to keep the casino open, Aztar agreed to let the gaming commission appoint a supervisor to manage the one casino when the merger/buyout took place. Five months later, in June 2007, the casino was sold to Isle of Capri, which renamed it the Lady Luck.
Note that this is a full year earlier than the June 2008 date that the MOGH catalog notes say that Casino Aztar closed and the Lady Luck opened. I have checked a few other on-line resources, including this page from the St. Louis Business Journal. It appears that this time it is MOGH that screwed up the date for this change, not Wiki, and they did it on both their page for Casino Aztar and their page for the Lady Luck.
Caruthersville is located in that little boot heel of Missouri, sandwiched between Arkansas and Tennessee. The Lady Luck complex includes a land-based building, several parking lots, an outdoor entertainment venue, and a long, covered ramp down to the casino floating on the Mississippi River. My wife and I visited there one afternoon last July as we drove from Tunica, MS by way of the Southland Park casino in West Memphis, AR, stopping by the Lady Luck on our way up to the St. Louis casinos.
I had some conflicting thoughts on the Lady Luck casino. The riverboat seemed small and incredibly crowded, but all of the employees were exceptionally friendly. Besides, I managed to win $110 playing craps there in a one-hour session. That was the second of three gaming sessions that day, all of which had positive outcomes, leading to unfounded confidence prior to my disastrous results the following day in St. Louis.
The chip shown below is another white RHC Paulson, this time with four, narrow, gray-blue edge inserts. The center inlay is mostly white with a Lady Luck logo and a drawn outline with a dozen convex scallops – sorry Ayecarumba, this one is not actually cut into that shape! At least the drawn outline is in a color to match the edge inserts.
Nothing on this chip fluoresces under UV light.
The only thing I can figure is that the scallop die was created AFTER these were made.
.. since we know they have a die cut for that shape ..
I took a quick look at my chips, and two from Indiana are the most obvious with this shape on the center inlay -- the ones in my posts for Grand Victoria and Hollywood.
Casino Aztar Boat
Here's my chip from the Lady Luck in Caruthersville. It's a Paulson RHC. The MOGH shows that it's the only denomination without a design on the inlay. Doc's $1 has the drawn scallop, $.50 has a sunburst, $25 has a hexagon, $100 has a gear pattern.I visited the casino in the summer of 2010 on a loop that included the eastern half of Missouri and the southern half of Illinois. In a lot of ways, I thought that the Lady Luck was similar to Harrah's Metropolis. The land-based aspects of the Lady Luck are much nicer than the boat itself, the boat was small-but-crowded, and it's in a place that has a questionable/small market for a casino. I didn't play much at the Lady Luck at all. I signed up for the players club, got $10, won $40 from that, waited for a spot to open at a BJ table, grabbed a chip and lost $35 very quickly. In retrospect, I wish I'd spent more time at the Lady Luck. It took a while to get there from Metropolis, and it was also a long drive to Saint Louis. I probably should have at least walked around a bit before getting back in the car.

In both cases, just a glance makes it seem that a fully-colored inlay has been cookie-cuttered in the twelve-convex-lobe shape. When I look closer, I suspect that the inlay is round with the printing field restricted to that shape. You seem to have some background in printing, so which seems more reasonable, an abrupt scalloped edge to the printed image or physically cutting the inlay to shape?
