It can be viewed as two interlocking ‘c’ shapes, so it could be dressed as a d4, with a different value at each end of the ‘c.’ Alternatively, each ‘c’ can be considered a single side, making it a d2. Since we already have d4 well represented by the 4-sided triangle, aka tetrahedron d4, this design strikes me as more valuable as a d2
Usually, yes. This one is effectively a d6 (a cube), but two of the flat faces have been replaced by curves that connect opposite flat faces. As such you’ve got four flat faces that the die can actually stop on. If you ignore the curved parts but consider all of the flats to be separate faces, it’s a d4. If you consider two flats connected by a curve to be a single face altogether, it’s a d2.
This is correct. It’s a d4 that’s just as cleanly a d4 as a regular d4 with rounded corners. Both have parts that don’t belong to the sides, since there’s no defined outcome where the dice comes to rest on one of the rounded non-side parts.
One set of my dice have very hard/straight/flat edges… The fucking 4 sided has stabbed me many times, but once it went right under my finger nail and drew blood 😫
Looks 4-sided to me
Agreed, but also weird as aren’t d4 made from 4 triangles?
So would you say I solved the case?
I think Skua might be right, d2?
How can it be a D2, I can literally see 3 sides with my very eyes.

Why not throw a coin at that point?
Some people do. 🤷 I donno, friend, I just work here.
So one could say you are somewhat involved in that crime.

Fuck caltrop d4s, all my homies hate caltrop d4s (it’s me, I’m all the homies)
