Hi everybody!

Found this last night roll hunting as usual for the Ws.
What do you think? Is it too minor to be of any consequence?

It's a nice find! Your photo is a little blurry. Reminds me of a duck snuggling the building. I'd say keeper. Die chip.

yeah, I'm aware of the blurry but it wasn't like that until I tried to blow it upand then it got all kinds of funky. lol.
it's the only picture I have at the moment though. Maybe I could use the macro lens at short range later and get something clearer out of it.

Kind of reminds me of a bird roosting also, Maybe a turkey vulture, it would be an awful big bird in perspective to the tower and the bell hahaha

anyways it was big enough to catch my eye without magnification and make me take a 2nd look.

So, I just learned something new with this, Apparently 4 square millimeters or less is a die chip, and 4 sq. millimeters or more is an interior die break and they are usually connected to a die crack, when not connected to a die crack, it's called a freestanding interior die break.

this would need to be about twice as large to qualify for a freestanding interior die break at roughly a 2mmx2mm length and width. to get to 4sq.mm.

Research is fun!

Absolutely not. I picked up a colorized version of this last week.
