"I am curious "if" you "saw" these"
Not sure what you are implying by "IF and SAW" them.
They were in my hand and I handed them to Gordon.
He paid close to 10,000 for a "lot" of NV chips a non collector friend had acquired over the years. He paid about 30% of chip rack price at the time. It was actually April 1, 1997.

Grade? I will leave that up to the slabbing companies.

The bad scan (one of my 1st scans) below is actually the 10th Hacienda orange $5 chip that was in the "lot". I kept one of each chip as commission on the sale, with Gordon's knowledge. The owner of the "lot" also kept 2 of every chip in the "Lot", which means there was actually an 11th and 12th Hacienda orange $5.
