If everyone who has a K&Q could check out that metal "squiggle" between the 28th and 29th bead on the 9 0clock arm, upper rim near the the corner. That is a small amount of metal that I would expect to fade with increased use of the die.
There is a small slice out of the bead, it is indeed small.
You guys are giving me MAJOR LEAGUE eye-strain! I gotta buy a loupe...can see several of the flaws with the naked eye, but not all. And even on the scans it is not possible because it fails to show the sides on the beading. There are some I can see with my eyes that I can't fins on scans...
Try a 30X jeweller's loop. They are about $30 off the net and really help with details. On the other hand, you could buy some surgical loops for about $1000 that will make you look like a turbo dork.

It's not going to be easy to see the little slice or the split beads without a loop, you really do need one.
