Spotted paulson diamond molds (1 Viewer)

[Marius L]

I just got lucky and bought a set of Paulson diamond molds with one of paulsons "standard" fantasy color schemes.

Diamond mold is not the first thing to come to mind when you see those edges, I'm sure. However there was another picture as well, which made it clear it was.

It made me really curious, as the only other spotted diamond molds I believe I've seen here before, are the "set" that came from a place in Belgium, brought to PCF by @steevbe a while back. After just having scored the above chips I was searching through PCF for info on spotted Diamond molds and came to realize that there was actually an auction for some ending the same day. Pretty crazy coincidence and I'm happy to have secured those as well!

Here's a picture of those.

I haven't had the opportunity to inspect the chips I purchased yet, but they are on their way to my super helpful reshipper in the US, so I guess I'll see them in a couple of months. (the struggles of international s(c)hipping..) Anyways, I am mainly looking for info. Diamond mold solids, both from paulson, burt co and other producers of clay chips are pretty common, but does anyone have some insight on the spotted versions specifically?

I was lucky enough to snag some months back. The colors on these absolutely pop! They’re the only spotted diamonds I’ve seen since I’ve been on PCF. Not sure how many are out there in the wild

I had a bunch of Paulson diamond mold solids years ago. I remember I actually emailed Paulson I believe this was pre PGI. They responded quickly that they were indeed Paulson chips and sold in their retail stores back when they were open. Cool chips!

I am told that these are Burt Co. Circa 1970.
Does anyone neeeed these?

 

[Okku]

I got some of those Greens. AK found a small batch of the spotted diamonds.

One of the coolest projects/hunts I’ve seen in a while @Marius L ! Best of luck and I’ll be sure to keep an eye out for more.

 

[Marius L]

Appreciate that, Tom! Lucky find for sure. And also making me really curious as to how common these are, or were back then. Assuming they were sold in the paulson retail store in Vegas. I have a feeling there's someone on here that have seen something like it before?

 

[MrCastro127]

Awesome chips

lol, i thought this was my wanted ad!

Really starting to look more like a set after picking up @Pinkdan' chips a couple of years back and now lastly a couple racks from @BHB set.

I'm thinking 1, 5, 25, 100, 500.

 

[EmptyPocs]

dibs!
oh wait...

 

[Marius L]

Also have some odd small numbers of these other diamond mold chips, but it's hard to incorporate them all into the set given the small numbers of everything.

Still looking if anyone has anything, or finds anything. Kinda hard to imagine exactly the same chips showing up elsewhere, but I did actually purchase identical $25 chips from two completely different lots so I guess it's posible!

Left and right barrel from two different purchases. Identical generic stamp and identical colors. Likely both from the paulson store in late 90s or early 2000s. Day green/blaze orange I believe. Anyways, let me know if anyone can help fill out the racks somehow!

 

[EmptyPocs]

are you doing spotted only, or are solids an option?

 

[Marius L]

Only spotted!

Solids would be too easy, lol. Was thinking at one point that a solid lowest denom could make sense, but don't think I need that anymore!

Somebody tell him how ugly them greens are, not fitting at all into this set!
