These Crystal Park Casino Chips Are WEIRD!

Today we talk about the Crystal Park Secondary casino chips that were made, but never made it to the casino. There is something different between these and standard Paulsons that I've seen. These CP chips have some weird dimple texture across the faces, the H&C is recessed and does not have this texture and the edges are printed onto the chip. I have NEVER seen this on Paulson chips before so it caught me off guard when I first saw these. Additionally all of the chips are cancelled because they most likely never made it to the casino. "Crystal Park Casino in Los Angeles was open for a few months and was shut down by the state." That's very interesting. Many of the primary chips I've seen are very nice, they feature the same style oversized inlays (I guess we can call them), but they edges are NOT printed onto the chip. The outer rim is normal, but the center feature the same style of printed faces up about half way through the H&C. These are the only chips from Paulson I have seen done this way. They are all light, not leaded from my understanding, and are much different. The secondary chips are quite slippery because of the texture and probably the starburst stamp on the faces too. So, this is something completely new to me, hope you guys enjoy!
