The standard size of CPC chips is 39 mm, and the larger A and Scroll molds are 43 44 mm. I thought some would find it interesting that the Burt Co. (the predecessor to ASM and CPC) used to make chips as large as 46 mm.
Below, a Burt Co. order card from the 1970s. The chip mold was a house mold for the Genting (Resorts World) company. Below the card is a Genting $5 chip which is on the 42 mm mold, and a Burt sample chip on the Genting mold, but I'm not sure what size it is. The mold was probably returned to Genting at some point. I wonder how interested chippers would be in oversize chips on that mold if CPC ever got their hands on it again.
