I found this 1986 LMC while coin roll hunting today. At first I thought it was just a damaged coin, but upon further inspection I have my doubts. First of all the is absolutely no damage to the rim. Secondly and I find this strange, the area with the extra metal is thinner than the surrounding area. Sort of looks like it got stuck in a copper bath! You tell me your opinions.

That's Cud 001 (CU-1C-1986-001) and it's worth quite a bit. Great find and glad you didn't skip over that one!

So you don't have to follow the link, this one is listed as "catastrophic die damage with obverse die break"

But both sides look incuse? If it were a Cud, the rim would not be visible because of a raised Cud?
They are calling it:

"Catastrophic Die Damage with Obverse Die Break"

It matches, but I wouldn't call it a Cud. Must be something I'm missing on this one?

Coop, it is a Cud. It shows every sign that a Cud shows. There's even weakness on the reverse. Anyways, super nice find moose59! It's a keeper and worth a lot of money, so get it in a 2x2 right away!
