I bought 100 of the recent offering of Jessie Beck Riverside $1 chips and here is some info the hobby might appreciate. About 20% of the lot was damaged. And about 10% of the lot were errors. There were 4 chips with "$1" on one side and "$25" on the other. There were 3 chips with the pic of Jessie Beck on both sides and 4 chips with the crest on both sides. I was told that the latest issue of James' book says these errors are unique and have a high price. (the $1/$25 chip is not mentioned I was told). Anyway, they are interesting but we should all beware if they are offered at a high price. I might be interested in selling 2 sets of the 3 errors. The error chips are in excellent condition with square edges.
