Although I'm @ work & don't have another example readily available...it certainly appears so.

I think so! Not 100% but I am leaning heavily to the "yes" side. Congrats

It is a die chip. Note how it flows over the claws?

Yeah, those are pretty neat! I've found several examples of these over the years. I think they are referred to as "extra bear claws".
I'll try to find mine and post some pics!

I seem to find a lot of these on the Alaska quarter, and to me it seems harder to find one without chips on the claws.
