I found it difficult to tell from your photos. If you take a soft, pointed object, like a toothpick, and gently rub over the area, you should be able to tell. If it is raised, then yes, a die chip, which occurs when the edge of a design on a die breaks off. Not much added value, but fun find and I&#039;d keep it. </p><p>If the surface area is recessed, the toothpick gets caught in the surface, then it could be due to a defective planchet. The sheet of metal being fed into the cutting die to make blank planchets, could have a defective surface, possibly from improperly mixed alloy, leaving a small surface divot. Test your spot and let us know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
