Is there a definative list of all sets that were made on the "Paulson Chips" mold? (1 Viewer)

[Denali]

Looking to find all the options available on this mold. Classics, National Poker Series and what else?

Not sure about a list. I somewhat remember a thread a while back that listed a bunch of the Paulson fantasy line of chips with pictures. I can't seem to find it atm. I'll see if I can dig it up. Other's I can think of were the Pharaoh's, CDI '05 and Fun Nite.

edit - "the authentic" was another one.

Not familiar with "the authentic", at least by name anyway.

Here are a couple threads showing many of the "PAULSON CHIPS" mold sets. Looks like they use it for a lot of their advertising chips as well.

Interesting. I always thought anything with paulsons mold was a china clay

Hmm, looks like there are two different versions of the mold, one that is flat across the surface and the second with raised area where the text is. Examples - CDI 05 have the raised version and the Nationals have the flat version.

So far:
CDI '05's (raised)
Classics (flat)
National's (flat)
The Authentic (raised)
Fun Nite (?)

I seem to recall the Pharaohs had a "Paulson Chips" version -- not if sure raised or flat though?

From BGinGA in the other thread:

I've never seen Fun Nites on that mold either (not to say they don't exist). As far as I know, the PAULSON CHIPS mold has been used for five different chip lines and samples:

• Pharaoh's Club & Casino
• Paulson Classics
• Casino de Isthmus City
• National Poker Series
• The Authentic (shaped inlays)
• Fun Nite (hot-stamps)
• GPI/Paulson manufacturing samples

The first four were all introduced circa 2004-2005 or so, after the reverse-merger that created GPI. The Authentic line came later (2007-2008).

Also noteworthy to mention that there is more than one version of the PAULSON CHIPS mold. The diameters of the center recess area differ.

Any others anyone can think of?

There is also a 43mm version, used for GPI manufacturing samples. Otherwise, the list in post #8 is complete.
