| Hello
I just handled a few thousand used 1x4 bricks for my store, and I sort them into
vintage versions with side pips and modern versions with stud pips.
But I found this strange brick: It's light bluish gray with side pip (all
other modern color bricks have stud pips). But not the same side pip found on
vintage bricks, it's round (vintage pips are oval) and this one is positioned
below the center (vintage pips are posititioned above). The inside numbers are
"30 10" and "06". Has anyone seen a brick like this before? Could it be a clone?

You probably already checked, but is there a chance the pip in on the other side?
Perhaps that round mark is just a dent or defect.
Failing that, my best guess would be it is a brick from a test mould or rarely
used mould.
There are many clone manufacturers, but I've never heard of one having the
audacity to use the LEGO logo.

There is only the mold pip shown in the image.
