Glory Hole $1 chip variation?

While scanning a few chips to put on eBay tonight, I discovered that I have a $1 chip from the Glory Hole casino in Central City Colorado that is medal aligned. I'd like to know if anyone else has found a chip like it. Every other chip from this casino that I've seen is typical Chipco coin aligned.

The Glory Hole opened the first time 2/27/92. I'm not sure what date they closed at this time, but Harrah's took over the building and operation as a working casino 12/20/93. Harrah's had their own chips, and closed 3/31/97. The Glory Hole reopened in 1997 (not sure of the exact date) and closed again 12/22/97. The second opening of the casino did not result in a new issue $1 chip, so all of the $1 chips from the casino are from the first opening.

The scan below shows a similar chip, the one I will be putting on eBay, but it is a standard coin alignment.

Bob :-)
