Hi Gene,
You and I have privately discussed whether ALL the chips you have scanned are Boreland fakes. It is also no secret that I disagree with you involving some of these chips.
You have your opinion and I have mine <g>. I know for a fact Boreland COULD NOT reproduce the clay that gave rise to the shiny NEVADA mold or the DICE AND CARDS mold. He also DID NOT finish the chips eliminating the "splash" of the gold hot stamp.I know of NO Boreland fake where he took effort in producing a finished looking chip.
I am also aware that Boreland did have access to genuine blanks that were previously prepared by Bud Jones.
I do not post this note to put your research down or to take away from your opinion. I post my note to show that there is genuine disagreement upon what YOU claim to be true. Best, Jim
