That’s an inlay worthy of BCC quality control.

I can see an inlay getting off center....but how do you forget to put in an edgespot?

Pretty sure this is a security feature, not an error (or typo). Visa cards used to have "Visa" all over them in a similar style, with one spelled "Vias". It's still pretty cool and a nice catch!

The screw up and the legendary double screw up.

Thought my eyes were messing with me but came across this one. Looks double stamped with the large key mold.

 

[AfterTheFact]

Going through my NL chips to find the errors.

I had a feeling those “error” $25s weren’t SUPER uncommon
It would be fun to see one where both pairs are swapped

[AfterTheFact]

Not sure if it’s an error or damage from sun or a harsh chemical. The normally vibrant blue spot is more of a grayish green. If it was sun or chemical damage wouldn’t the other spots be affected? Also, it was dirty when I got it so I used a magic eraser thinking it would take the top layer off and restore the blue color. It’s apparently this way through and through. Thoughts??

Chip in question

Chip compared to a normal blue spot chip.

Chemical damage might have penetrated further into the chip than initially thought.

Possibly different manufacturing batches?

That’s definitely a possibility but why no damage on the others? They just dipped one spot? A defective clay batch ?? Will probably never know..

Perhaps it's just an issue for blue based on mineral composition. Not sure.

Just came across an off centered hot stamp from Sahara Reno

The green spot on this one chip looks like it's Retro Green and not Green

Interestingly, all 3 edgespots on that chip are concave, whereas all the other chip's spots are convex

I noticed that too. Wasn't sure if it was actually 3A12 instead of 3A916 or if it was just variance in the cutting

Cool double-stamp from my relabel set.

I actually think this looks pretty bad a$$!! I'd sign up for that mold.

It has to do with variance in clay density through differing colors. You tend to see it more in the rolling edge of thinner spot patterns.
