Hi! I was doing tons of shop hunts during a trip I did to Québec and Ottawa. I found tons of National Indigenous Peoples Day commemoratives during my hunts, most likely they were just released into circulation there (this was in August). When I was going through my 'haul' in order to sort them for trades, I noticed that one of the uncolored CCs had a small die chip on its security hologram. Just thought it would be worth sharing - am definitely going to keep it and was already told that it wasn't too particularly special, but still interesting given that I haven't really seen any modern toonies with such errors... what do you think of it, though?

Die chips are not errors.
Dies chip and crack and wear, it's part of their life cycle.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

To me it looks more like a bag mark than a die chip.

@generaldarian - As Errers and Varietys says "Looks like a Die Chip to me." I looked through all my 2023 NIPD toonies and none resembled yours. Good eye, It's a keeper.
