Three Les Ambassadeurs Club casino chips from Richard Lester's musical comedy A Hard Day's Night. Gamblers at the famous Les Ambassadeurs Club, where the production filmed in its Le Cercle casino, used chips when Paul's grandfather John (Wilfrid Brambell) slipped away from The Beatles to place a bet.

The set features two £1 chips and one £5 chip. All three are made of plastic and feature pearlescent-red and light-blue finishes respectively. The £5 chip features a black picture of Les Ambassadeurs Club on the reverse, and all the chips are stamped with serial numbers. As it is not possible to screen-match this plaque among the many required on set, we are unable to verify if this particular prop was one used for filming. Dimensions (£5 chip): 4.5 cm x 6.5 cm x 0.3 cm (1 3/4" x 2 1/2" x 1/4")

Estimate: £600 - 800 †Δ
