Gene,

Allow me to correct myself.

Millions of them is nothing more than a figure of speech. Yes, I've handled many, more than most. As a former gambler who frequented the Horseshoe (among many others) with black & pink action for many years, I feel confident enough to make the statement I did in my former post.

I recently purchased a $100 Binion's (HS mold) for my personal collection and to my surprise, the chip is of a plastic material, much lighter than the originals.

My wish to remain anonymous has nothing to do with this issue, it's personal and it's my right. If you're in doubt of my claim, I can drop the chip "in question" in the mail and let you examine it for yourself, I do trust you.

All I was trying to do was give a heads up to honest collectors, I'm not here for a pissing contest, nor do I have the time to play games.

The $100 Horseshoe I received is plastic, beware, end of message.
