¶ description of chip |
picture of chip |
A. SJS-HYD -- red, white, blue -- $3 each.
¶ there is a distinctive
curlicue,
below the hat, formed by the end of the whip. (This is code HYD of
the old book; SJS of the new book.) |
 |
|
|
| B. The following three
chips have no hatching (engraved lines) inside the opening of the cap,
as pictured to the right. |
 |
B1. SHS-HXC -- sorry, none for
sale. I have just this one chip.
¶ the whip end dangles
around the end of the handle.
(This was code HXC of supplement #1 of the old book. It was left
out of the new book.) |
  |
B2. SHS-HXA -- red, white, blue, yellow
-- $2 each.
¶ there is a
space
between (a) the line that goes through the
end of the handle, and (b) the two bulges that must be the whip end. (cf.
SHS-HXD, below.) (This chip was coded HXA in the old book.
It was left out of the new book.) |
  |
B3.. SHS-HXD -- yellow -- $5
each.
¶ there is no space between the line and the bulges; rather,
they line up very nicely (cf. SHS-HXA, above). (This chip was coded
HXD in the old book and omitted from the new book.) |
  |
|
|
| C. The following
two chips are distinguished by the fact that there is hatching at the top
of the opening of the cap, but there is no hatching at the lower part,
as seen to the right. |
 |
C1. SHS-HXG -- sorry, no dupes.
¶
the horseshoe line runs across the peak of the cap; that
is, there is an uninterrupted solid line. (This is code HXG
of the old book, and is pictured in the new book under SHS
Variation.) |
  |
C2. SHS-HXJ -- red, white, blue,
brown -- $3 each.
¶ the horseshoe line is interrupted; that is, it runs behind the
peak of the cap. (This is code HXJ of the old book and SHS
of the new book.) |
  |
|
|
| D. The following four
chips have hatching covering all, or virtually all, of the inside of the
cap. |
 |
D1. SHS-HXS -- red, white, blue -- excellent
condition -- made with no paint in the engravings -- $3 each
¶ This
is the only "shoe, cap and whip" chip that has 4 slits on the right
side of the horseshoe. (This was code HXS of the old book and
is omitted from the new book.) |
 |
D2. SJA-HXM -- red, white,
blue -- $3 each.
¶ This code is distinguished by the curlicue around the
whip handle. Also, note the narrow rectange atop the horseshoe
and the stripes around the whip handle. (This was code HXM in the
old book and SJA in the new book.) |
  |
D3. SJA-HXP -- red, white, blue
-- $4 each.
¶
In this code there is extensive cross-hatching below the rectangle atop
the horseshoe, and there is horizontal hatching on the sides of the
rectangle. (This was code HXP of the old book and, it looks like
"SJA Variation" in the new book.) |
  |
D4. SHS-HXQ -- red, white, blue
-- $2 each
¶ The rectangle on the top of the horseshoe
is rather wide and may or may not have "drippings" (engravings)
under the rectange. In fact, one chip side might have the drippings
and the other side not. Another unique characteristic of this code
is that there is shading (engravings) on the right side of the whip
handle. (This chip was coded HXQ of supplement #1 to the old
book. It is not included in the new book.) |
