Just my limited experience with HHs, so I can't speak for other chips. | That is exactly what I have here with the horsehead mold inlay chip sample. The inlay is silk screened/molded on and textured, exactly like all the old paulson casino chips I have here that I collect.
There is no edge to pick at where the label ends, it goes all the way past the edge of the label and to the first concentric circle. There is no way this label is glued on. | The inlay IS a glued on label, it just has a a thin textured coating applied over it.

From the samples I have here, the inlay looks molded into the chip, just like all the paulson chips I have here.
I also just sat here for the past 15 mins trying to dig at the inlay and get it to come up/off the chip with my fingernails. I could not even get a grip on any side to lift the label up, even on the edge where the screening ends.
You say the inlays are not difficult to remove, what are you using to remove them? A knife? Because if you give me enough time and a knife ill hack apart any casino chip with an inlay you give me and get the inlay off. It will not come off by hand unless you spend hours picking at it and trying, and even then I dont think it would budge. The inlay isnt going anywhere.
I would like some evidence to the claim that the label is glued on and then screened over and what the difference would be between that and whatever paulson does, because both seem identical to me while looking/feeling/playing with both types of chips. Not the new paulsons either, I am talking casino paulson chips.
