Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3335 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 3:50 pm I believe those may be die chips. The '52S is a very impressive one. "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff

Ppincher1 New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 4:35 pm I'm no pillar of the community but they appear to me to be what is commonly referred to as a Cud! Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36916 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 4:38 pm Nice examples of die chips. Report this Post to the Staff
Ppincher1 New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 4:38 pm I have ran across several in the last several years and most recently find them on 2017 dimes and the second O in the word Monticello on the newer type nickels. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76972 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 5:32 pm Ppincher1, they are not called Cuds. They are called Die Chips. A Cud (Major Die Break) is much different, as it only involves the rim and some parts of the fields. http://goccf.com/t/331880 Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 5:37 pm Probably now called a die break. But these dies were run until the die, died. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76972 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 5:46 pm It depends. As long as it's 4 square millimeters or more, then it can be called a Interior Die Break. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/23/2019 6:00 pm Sometimes they get looking pretty tall on the coins: The bigger void on a die, the higher the chip/break can grow, until it runs out of metal and then it levels off. Report this Post to the Staff
