10g Sopranos - Metal Insert?

I was holding a yellow Soprano Six Stripe 10g chip (a sample from DCG) towards a bright light and noticed what looked to be the silhouette of a metal slug in it.

It appears as a darker mass in the middle of the chip, with a central hole, surrounded by 6 holes in a hexagon pattern then another series of eleven holes that concentrically align with the the recessed ring in the chip face. These appear to be the same sort of holes that they use in slugs to let the plastic bond through the insert ....

The other colors I have are too dark to show this, even in front of a halogen bulb.

Can't find anywhere where Sopranos are acknowledged as having a slug.

Anyone seen this before? Maybe this is how they got the 7 gram weight up to 10 grams?

Don't get me wrong - still a great chip for the price. Just wondering about construction.
