Paulson had the non shiney hat mold made and continued selling the CJ shiney hat mold.
Paulson then had a new shiney hat mold made from their new non shiney hat mold.
Paulson actually sold more CJ mold chips than CJ ever dreamed of selling.
Not sure when the CJ mold went non usable. Molds wear out.
The shine comes from polished dies.
CJ color samples exist, I have a few. None in the color you are asking about.
The ones I have were sent to a friend in the mid 1960's for him to see what chips for an illegal game would look like after production.
Here is the kicker.
TK Speciality in Kansas City sent the CJ sample chips, to my friend in Tx in 1960's. TK had their own TK mold. Why were they selling CJ chips??????
