I just posted another post questioning the " WRONG WRONG WRONG..." statement. Your explaination here does explain that, Thank You. However, as I understood the original issue it was mentioned to replace Topps with the name of a casino. In that case, it would not be the player or some other party that entered into the contract to alter the chip. It would have been the casino themselves that altered the chip by granting an exclusive on a release to a slabber for grading purposes. In that case I would think that the slab would have to be considered an official part of the chip. This raises two new questions. I believe you told me before that you have ordered chips for casinos. You may know the answers. Does a casino have to submit an official design to gaming for consideration and approval? and, If they were to enter into a contract with a slabber to have an entire edition slabbed, would they have to include the slab into the design that is submitted to gaming? I ask this assuming, perhaps wrongly, that there may be the intent to slab the chip before it is actually produced. Thank you for your insight.
