Don't eat the gambling chips...not dangerous otherwise with normal exposure as the article states...BD

PHOENIX - Arizona health regulators issued a warning Thursday about a popular brand of high-end poker chips that may contain high levels of lead. The warning about Paulson brand chips used in many casinos and sold at retail to gamblers came a day after ABC affiliate KNXV-TV in Phoenix aired a story about the potential contamination.

"Although testing has proven the existence of lead in the chips, the mere presence of lead is not sufficient to prove there is a health risk," Charlier said in the statement. "In fact, independent testing has also demonstrated that the simple handling of these chips would not produce any risk of health concerns to the consumer nor to the environment."
