I think the grey T's mold $5 chip is a Cal Neva Lodge chip. I don't know why it also has a Reno TCR number. Maybe one of TCR authors can answer that question. There used to be more overlap on these chips in TCR where someone thought they had both Reno and Tahoe use. Maybe this one just never got fixed?
When I got the chip, it was offered as a Tahoe chip. I guess if you find an identical chip with a better price and a Reno attribution, that's what you should buy. I tried to price mine with the question in mind... starting bid at $50 and Buy It Now at $75 so you shouldn't go far wrong in either case.
For what it's worth, I don't see that chip listed for Reno in James' book at all.
