I'm sure it has a happy home....but what a tough decision for you!! Keep it with foster relatives, or let it go to it's "blood" kin! I'm sure you made a wise decision!
"HOW-CAN-YA-CALL-THIS-FUSHCIA???
Puh-LEAZE tell me no one described the color of that chip as "fuschia"!?!?!?
I swear, the chip guides need to come with color charts!!! In my current chip numbering project, I think I've come across about 15 chips of different colors all described as "blue"....which is fine, 'til you come across a description of 4 chips with the same description EXCEPT that one is lt. blue, one is blue, one is med. blue, and one is dark blue. An adequate differentiation if you have all 4 chips...but if you only have 1 of 'em, GOOD LUCK!
I'm not complaining, an artist once told me that there are over 700 different shades of blue!!! My simple solution (for now...just to keep me going forward) is to put more than one number on the chip. I'll worry about the details later!
This is such a fun hobby!! One of my "didn't know it was rare when I found it" finds is a 10¢ Las Vegas Club rcthrt....TCR lists a gray one and a lavendar one...and an experienced chipper once expressed the opinion that the gray chip was a lavendar one that faded!! I just call ours gray...and drilled (the keychain was included in the $10 price tag )
