"...Bill Borland wasn't the scoundrel that he has come to be known as. Over the years since his death, the story and allegations continued to expand.
There's a good argument that the so called Borland, Nevada Mold and Diecard HS fakes are in fact, real chips, samples, or production overruns. (how's that for a shocker?)
All of the chips with dates, were made as, and intended to be sold as commemorative designs for gift shops. With the approval of the gaming commission "
Allow me to play devil's advocate for a minute--could it be that story is being propagated by someone or some entity with a financial interest in a load of those chips? I venture a guess that there are hobby purists out there that won't buy it! Chuck
