Crest & seal chip rarity

It's always informative to hear from you regarding C&S rarity, Rich. I'm wondering if you are considering chip color as part of your criteria in determining rarity of a design.

For instance, the chips with the Masonic symbol: I have the yellow and green in this design and have seen these colors offered several times at auction. Are you considering only the red, white, and blue (shown in your post) as particularly rare?

Second, I'm wondering if you are considering condition as one of the determining factors for rarity. For example, the Anona Cigar chips are often seen with one side well worn. I have two colors that are in this condition. I've seen Bud asking much higher prices for those that are pristine on both sides. I'm not arguing with his pricing, but would you consider all colors and conditions of the Anona to be rare?

Finally, how about the CORTEZ chips. I have red, white, blue and yellow of this design. You show only the yellow in your rare-chip scan. Same question as above, is only that color especially rare?
