I won an auction recently that had a Sands $1 in a jewelry "bezel"...my only concern was whether the back side of the chip had an inlay and whether or not the chip was glued into the enclosed back-side of the bezel. It WAS my only concern until a wise chipper friend offered that the chip may have also been shaved to fit into the bezel....oh, great . Upon returning home from a fun weekend in Vegas, I was extremely relieved to find that the bezel was only a ring around the chip and that the chip was held in with four tabs on each side...and it wasn't shaved !!! Except for a couple of small nicks and a "rub" spot at one of the tabs, the chip is in great shape and has found its new home in my collection. Kinda nice when things work out well. Steve B
