As mentioned before, plum chips are stamped NCV on both sides. Here are the weights per barrel:

Red: 182.5g
Charcoal: 216.5g
Plum: 234.5g

@BGinGA it would be nice to know the formula used in my future purchases. No kind of list of non-Paulson THC chips is there?

Nope. But they are often referred to as C&J (Christy & Jones) chips, all are LCV (long cane version) molds with shiny hats, and all were produced before 1970. Here's some additional info:

Looks like I've picked on the Bonnie chips unnecessarily. I think I've given up on having them all sound identical since my last batch of chips (in pic) sound the same.

These ones I couldn't find in the chipguide with filters: yellow, h&c, and roulette.

Surely I can't be the only one this fussy about the sound, but I have been basing my decisions on color, and not knowledge of when the chips were made.

Either way, I have an actual Paulson set on the way that I'm sure I'll like

You might be

In a room with 8-10 people playing, talking, music or tv going, other noises....will you really hear the slight difference in shuffling sound between years made of Paulsons? (y) :thumbsup:

Just imagine me getting tilted during a big hand (in a quiet room): oh that guy's shuffling the 100s, oh and now that guy's shuffling the 500s, that sounds weird, why's he doing that!!

On another note @Seeking Alpha Social Club I just got some T-mold samples and they definitely stack the best out of any chip I have ever seen (could there be better?). If I had 200 I may try to stack them all!

I honestly don't think you'll find a chip that stacks better then the T-mold. If you do, please let me know because I don't own any that do. I'll try to stack 200 this weekend and let you know how it goes.

Don't go out of your way for me! I promptly made an order for a small set today! These chips are awesome!!!
