You're right. I checked the list of street names in Redding and there is nothing close to Bonilli. I got the Bonilli street name off both Staeffllers and Chipguide entries...so I am not sure where they got that from. UGHHHHHHH Now I am even MORE intrigued!

There are 4 known denoms ($1, $5, $25 and $100) so I can't imagine them being used in a non gambling site..so perhaps you are right and it was an illegal? And why would they have the "81' Redding" commemorated on the chip? I have never seen that before either.

Was Paulson that easy to order H&C chips from as relatively modern a time as 1981? All with nice shaped inlays. Baffling.
