Icon Poker announces their new wager marker, the .001 series for the consumer market. At 13 grams, the .001 meets the consumer's desire for a heavy casino chip, while providing a level of craftsmanship that was not available until now.

The new .001 features Icon's integrated full color print technology. All images are integrated into the surface of the marker. There are no labels to peel, no paint to scratch. The full color, high dpi quality imprint will last the functional life of the marker.


I received my sample chips via UPS yesterday. After spending some time trying to get the "new" off of them, I decided to put these chips through a little stress. Let's just say that short of hitting 'em with a hammer, they withstood just fine. At 13 grams each, these chips have a really good feel and a great sound. The images are embedded in each chip so well that I couldn't make a mark on them with my fingernail, and I have some hard fingernails. I even took 2 of the chips, rubbing the edge of one against the image of the other and nothing, no transfer of color or scratching of either surface. The image actually seems to be part of the chip. The sample set had 9 different chip colors; black, blue, orange, pink, red, yellow, green, gray, and purple. Another great feature of these chips is that they are made right here in the gold ole USA. If you are looking for a nice set of chips, that can handle the abuse, and can be fully customized, these chips are it.
