We have been advised that concentric circles or smooth coin center inlays, are only determined by the length of time that they remain in the tumbler. They are not different issues.
The $100, The Treasury, is not a "fake." It was made by the Bud Jones Co., using the same materials and techniques. The only difference is that they were made after the casino closed. Carl Osbourne negotiated with Bud Jones to make and sell chips to collectors after numerous casinos had closed. About the only difference is that the edges were not milled; they are rounded.
