Pete, From where/when did that yarn surface?

"...Bill Borland wasn't the scoundrel that he has come to be known as. Over the years since his death, the story and allegations continued to expand.

There's a good argument that the so called Borland, Nevada Mold and Diecard HS fakes are in fact, real chips, samples, or production overruns. (how's that for a shocker?)

All of the chips with dates, were made as, and intended to be sold as commemorative designs for gift shops. With the approval of the gaming commission "

Allow me to play devil's advocate for a minute--could it be that story is being propagated by someone or some entity with a financial interest in a load of those chips? I venture a guess that there are hobby purists out there that won't buy it! Chuck
