I JUST WAS LOOKING AT THE CUBAN CHIP SECTION OF THE CHIP CUIDE.COM AND DISCOVERED 2 CHIPS SUBMITTED AS PROTOYPES FOR THE HABANA HILTON CASINO 1959 ERA. THE 2 CHIPS BELOW ON THIS POST FEATURE A MODERN DAY MOLD PRODUCED BY PAULSONS CHIP CO. HERE IN LAS VEGAS. THE HILTON CORPORATION DID NOT USE THIS TYPE OF (H) LOGO AS MOLDED INTO THE CHIP. THE INSERT / STICKER LABEL IS CORRECT, HOWEVER IT LOOKS AS IF SOMEONE USED A NEW HILTON MOLD AND GLUED ON AN OLD HABANA HILTON STICKER. THESE 2 CUBAN CHIPS WERE SUBMITTED BY WESTERN CHARLES TO THE CHIP GUIDE ... AND I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM HIM OR ANYONE ELSE TO EITHER CONFIRM THE VALIDITY OF THESE CHIPS OR TELL ME HOW THIS CAME ABOUT. I HAVE PICTURES OF 2 HILTON LAS VEGAS CHIPS 1ST. ISSUED IN 1974 BY THE HILTON. THIS MOLD AND LOGO DESIGN WAS NOT AVAILABLE BACK IN 1959. I HAVE AN EXTENSIVE CUBAN COLLECTION AND HAVE NEVER COME ACROSS THESE. PLEASE REVIEW THE LINKS I HAVE PROVIDED. IF IT IS A FANTASY REMAKE CHIP .... THAT'S OK TOO ... JUST LET'S LIST IT PROPERLY. PLEASE CLICK ON THE LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST ... ALL COMMENTS ARE WELCOME .... THANK YOU FOR READING MY POST .... RICH BURGEL
