Got it. So how does one know if the coin has large or small denticles?

1$ 2021 KLONDIKE DOUBLE DIE

Good evening

This is the color piece and there are others that have linings in other places on the pieces.

Same thing for parts without color.

These different linings are found in the part of the characters, in the central part.

I think a partially filled die. There is a small possibility that the bottom of the matrix that makes the dies broke off, but I doubt it.
It is not a filled die. This fold is made by the coin rolling machine when closing the end of the paper roll.

It's not uncommon to see this PMD.
