Gene,
(1) here is the evidence exhibits.
(2) what does "per T-2 (Searings)" mean on the card (my spelling could be off).
(3) my chip has the very neat imprint on both sides, and the hot-stamp is gold (card says silver; also card has the "MF" printed in the middle of the card).
(4) Taylor fonts (below the card) are from Spragg pages.
(5) what do you think now? (chips were found in Illinois, by the way; most of the T-mold chips from there I suppose.) Could the card be for the MT chip of mine, and they just made a mistake on the card calling it MF? Is the "MF" in script in the "special mongram" section of the card an imprint from the die/hot-stamp thingie, or is it hand drawn?
Thanks,
Robert
