Don, As you may recall, I sailed on the Club Royale the weekend before it sank. On the Prodigy BB I posted a trade notice & got a number of offers which I did follow through with. I know what I took off the boat & what I was able to get once the new boat began to sail with those ugly CHIPCO's. Mark & I have discussed this issue a few times & are confident that we have a real good idea of the number of chips that are in the collecting world.
BTW, I have sold 2 chips in my life, one of which was the $2.50 Club Royale. I think that was a week when my wife forgot to give me my allowance for the day.
