I have wanted to have a couple of Ivory chips for a long time but just never got around to buying any. I got these at an antique fair today. The seller had them out last month so they are not hot sellers but I did find the design (ID-SD) on Rich Hanover's great web site and based on the discussion and images posted last week about the "new" ivory chips I was pretty sure these were authentic. I'm sure I didn't get a great bargain but I am very happy to have them. I don't think I'll be slipping down this slippery slope though - they're just too tough to find and evaluate.
We are sure lucky that so many people do so much for our hobby. All the web sites that provide Ids and images are just amazing. Thanks to all of you for your hard work!!!
