I won this old illegal on eBay a few days ago. Described as being from Club Keeneland, Covington, KY. It has the Lazy Diamond mold. Although described as having a gold inlay, this is an unusual kind of gold hot-stamp. The solid gold portions have holes in them, giving the design the appearance of being "nailed" to the chip (horsehoe like?).
I don't see it in Ed Hertel's book. Is this chip well known? I don't actively collect illegals but wanted this chip as a different style of hot-stamp marking.
