This chip is from the Crockford hoard.Produced by Christy & Jones these were to be used in the London Playboy club per arrangement between Victor Lownes and Crockford. Crockford would manage the club for a percentage. A deal could not be reached and Playboy ordered new chips from T.R. King (small crown). Pat Sullivan arranged the deal which fell through but retained the H& C chips. All of these chips are in new condition since they were never in play. This info is from Tom Stroh's book " Cheques,Chips and Tokens of the Playboy Casinos". Chip is worth about $3.00 -$5.00.
Thanks
Rick
