Fantasy chips are not made by or for a casino, although they may appear otherwise. Fantasy chips are made by independent 3rd parties as
either counterfeits,
fakes
or souvenirs.
Fantasy chips are included on the ChipGuide to alert collectors that they
are not casino chips and to advise you to proceed with caution. Purchasing fantasy chips, especially those that appear to be real casino chips,
may lead to fraudulent sales when your collection is disbursed and encourages their continued production.
