at your suggestion, this is what I sent:

Dear a1k1r1,

Greetings, My name is Jim Follis and I am a Life Member of the Casino Chip and Gaming Token Collectors Club, Inc. The reason I am writing is to inform you that the chip in this auction is NOT a real casino issued chip and is a creation of attaching a metal disk, the residue from a destroyed batch of real casino chips from the Frontier, and attached to a generic, home poker game chip made by the Gamblers General Store, Las Vegas, NV.

There are easily thousands of those metal disks floating around the chip collecting community, in all sorts of denominations, and we collectors see "mules" like this all the time. It would appear that you are not familiar with this hobby, but please know that the chip you are offering cannot be un-altered as indicated, because, in fcat, it is an altered remnant of an actual $100. For more information, please contact me. But please know that I provide this information in an effort to assist you in keeping your excellent feedback score.

Respectfully Jim
