How does one tell between a C&J hat/cane and a Paulson hat/cane?

"One difference is that the Paul-son H&C (for quite a while) was about 7 mm long while the CJ (Christy & Jones) H&C is about 9 mm long; the CJ ones have slightly taller hats, too. Unlike the Paul-son one, the CJ one usually has a shiny inside to the hat and a metal pellet inside the chip (X-ray it or take it apart)......Edge spots are another way to distinguish CJ chips from Paulson ones. The CJ edge spots have neat, smooth borders; the Paulson ones (but not the modern full and wide graphic ones -- see MD-76b, above) tend to be sloppy/uneven. The Paulson ones have convex ends, while the CJ ones are either straight, or --if the edge spots are a half inch or wider-- concave."
