I think that both of those 25 cent chips were likely produced in the 1980s, and the Chip Guide listing for the lavender chips needs to be updated. The lavender chip is on the Short Cane Version (SCV) of the THC mold. I don't think SCV chips were produced by Paul-son before the late 1970s. (Does anyone know the exact date?)
The mustard LCV chip I think is also Paul-son produced, as the hats are not shiny, although being so worn it is hard to tell. Alex could tell for sure as the Burt produced THC CJ/LCV chips are slightly wider in diameter than the Paul-son produced LCV/SCV chips. If you roll a mixed barrel of Burt and Paul-son THC chips, you will see the Burt chips stick out a bit more.
Also, they are also both listed in the 2019 Chip Rack as being from 1984.
