That's an interesting possibility. Although, from what I can gather from online sources, the gimmick dice used for forcing tricks like this typically have one of the numbers appearing twice (typically on opposite sides of the die, so you won't notice it so easily), rather than one side being completely blank. I'm not sure what a blank-faced die would be good for in a magic trick, since a gimmick like that would seem kind of obvious.

<p>All the other sides have numbers on them, except the side that would have a two, which is instead blank, as shown in the picture.</p>

<p>What game would this die be for?</p>

Do you know this is intentional, and not just a manufacturing mishap?
