Archie, thanks for the info and plug. Let me piggyback onto the post. For those who can't afford the plate, maybe own one of the white 500 Club chips for $42 postpaid, insured. PayPal accepted. The hot-stamping imprint has changed some over the years and smeared some. See picture below of some of the chips. I always mail off the best ones I have.

Here is another link to Archie's article with pictures, and my web page with pictures:
