Of course it does Paul. To most of us. And I feel more are looking at this factor. Is it because we wrote up a Grading System in our Official US Casino HCip Price Guide? I hope so.
I know you like condtion. How many years did you look for a Four Queens $1 arrowdie in top shape like the one you got from me at last years convention? I feel it also promotes a challenge. Finding some of these chips in top condition is near impossible. I finally got the arrowdie $1 Fremont in a near perfect condition. That took years!
Sometimes or rather most of the time when I find a chip in super condition that I normally only see worn it is exciting. It is like a new chip find & in a way it is.
See you at the show Paul.
