Not sure if that's the right code for these but I'm looking for more chips like the snapper from the Taj.

Those spots are either 2D12 or 2D38 which would be custom since they are not in the spot samples shown for Paulson. The reason I think they are 2D38 is they look to be the same width as the 3D38 when I compared them.
 
Didn't New Jersey have crazy strict regulations about chips and spot patterns? Is it possible that snappers from other NJ casinos have the same spot pattern?
 
Thats my thought. I hadnt seen them anywhere else. Can you think of any others like these?
No sir, I have never seen that spot pattern until now! I am pretty sure if they were in the catalogue they would be listed as 2D12 or 2D38 depending if the are 1/2" or 3/8" spots

You may be on to something but I show most of the snappers in New Jersey are style #3 Quarter Pies. Which as we all know the Paulson quarter pie is not a true quarter pie.

Maybe they talked Paulson into splitting the spot on the quarter pie and then convinced the gaming commission to allow them to use it. I did not check all of the casinos in Jersey but out of all of the majors they were all quarter pies.
 
I measured the spots so I can recreate them for an example. It came out at a hair over .600
I'm guessing it started out at 1/2" and mushroomed when formed. Coincidentally it looks as though the base chip is cut twice using a die. Odd chip indeed.

4. $ 2.50 - "Pink" shall mean that color classified as 2.5R 6/10 on the Munsell
System of Color Coding which shall be reproduced to within the following
tolerances:
Upper Limits Lower Limits
Hue H+ 3.75R 6/10 H- 1.25R 6/10
Value V+ 2.5R 6.75/10 V- 2.5R 5.75/10

--------------

(f) Each value chip issued by a casino licensee shall contain an identifying
characteristic, to be known as an "edge spot," which shall:
1. Be applied in a manner which ensures that the edge spot shall:
i. Be clearly visible on the edge and, to the extent required by the
Division, on each face of the value chip; and
ii. Remain a permanent part of the value chip;
2. Be created by using:
i. The primary color of the chip; and
ii. One or more secondary colors; and
3. Include a design, pattern or other feature that a natural person with
adequate training could readily use to identify, when viewed through the
closed circuit television system of the casino licensee, the denomination
of the particular value chip when placed in a stack of gaming chips, in the
table inventory or in any other location where only the edge of the value
chip is visible; provided, however, that the design, pattern or feature
created by the primary and secondary colors required by (l)2 above shall
be sufficient by itself to satisfy the requirements of this paragraph if
approved for that purpose by the Division.
(g) When determining the secondary colors to be used to make the edge spot on a
particular denomination of value chip, a casino licensee shall, unless otherwise approved by the
Division, use only those secondary colors that are reasonably likely to differentiate its value
chip from the same denomination of value chip issued by any other casino licensee.
1. If an approved value chip uses a single secondary color, no other casino
licensee shall use a similar secondary color as the sole secondary color on
the same denomination of value chip unless it is used in a different
pattern or design approved by the Division pursuant to (f)3 above.
2. If an approved value chip uses a combination of two or more secondary
colors, no other casino licensee shall use that identical combination of
secondary colors on the same denomination of value chip unless it is
used in a different pattern or design approved by the Division pursuant to
(f)3 above.
