These are the first hot-stamped chips I've seen on this particular mold. If you've got any MG v1's or Martini Clubs and are looking for some kind of a custom add-on, these may be your ticket.

First time seeing this mold. Very cool. Thanks for sharing!

I've been in love with this mold forever. I saw those last night and nearly crapped. I didn't buy them because I'll never see another.
Still almost bought them....still might buy them haha.

BTW, I went on the hunt for the mold some time ago. Emailed folks etc but ultimately got nowhere.

Great BCC mold used on a couple of designs i.e. mardi gras and martini club.
Once upon a time i had a boatload of the MG"s. Fantastic feel and look, but in the end the mishapen inlay was a buzzkill. Wish I still had them though.

I mean, wholly shit, look at that beauty!

Wow. Speechless.

I don't see MD-38b on Robert Eisenstadt's mold project.

Not sure what a black solid could add but @72o

Thanks man. I wonder if this is one of those cases where I should buy and figure out their exact use later.

As former owner of NJ, I can say that chips will not be made on the 'Nevada' or '4Suits' mold again. The molds were retained by us when we sold the clay assets to PGI.

Help me understand this. Is it because those molds won’t work with CPC or it’s a legal thing or future plans?
It’s a crime that the suits mold doesn’t have a larger body of work.

CPC process can't use them.

The write up above in Post 2 seemed to indicate the chips / mold were originally made by ASM .. which normally would indicate compatibility with CPC .. Unless some irreversible change occurred when the mold ended up with BCC ??

They are 100% compatible.

Just like some choose to collect chips on certain molds.. Its just a little different level. We prefer to collect molds that chips are made on. Plus we still have all the IP, formulas, processes etc. Who knows.. maybe some day when we want a cool hobby we will make chips.

Umm way to be nonchalant about dropping that little gem. If there is even a chance of more chips on this mold, even if we're talking like 20 years from now, I will start saving now.

I thought that I read somewhere that the Nevada mold was destroyed in a fire. Was more that one mold made?

Only one mold made. Was not destroyed in a fire. Purchased from ASM after Nevada Jacks was founded. Transferred to BC in an attempt to meet demand (note attempt). Transferred back to NJ when we purchased Hispania. Retired when clay assets were sold to PGI.

You could rent it out for a run perhaps
Glad to know where they are. I think the final answer I had before this was that they were in a museum.

Thanks for the info!
