After Harvesting cards, Sunday, at Rincon I sent the following e-mail, in red, to Pat Lamb to bolster a "new" card find. Verifying a card release from Harrah's Rincon has always been difficult because it's very popular with local people who have gotten replacement Harrah's cards while visiting other Harrah's casinos out of state and therefore have the 135..... account number on the card. I can only verify high roller cards issued out of Rincon based on font size and type - all of the other Harrah's Rincon cards, in our collection, have been issued directly to us by Harrah's Rincon.

"This last trip to Harrah's Rincon proved to be very rewarding, I was able to verify the release of the 2004 diamond slot card.

The problem for the last few months has been the harvesting of Diamond cards with different fonts and sizes then what is produced at Rincon.

Well on this last trip I got a new card (Elvis) and also found an undated Diamond card with the same fonts and sizes - this card is consistent with the diamond blanks at the reward center which I can not get - so for comparisons I'm submitting the scans below, top left is my OLD Elvis card, top right is my NEW Elvis card and just below this card is the Diamond card I found Sunday."

So, by saving the comparison card I can always show from what casino that particular Diamond card was, in all probliablity, issued. At least IMHO.
