LeatherHawk Valued Member United States 82 Posts	Posted 06/28/2021 02:42 am I've seen coins with large pieces of Cud. My question is how small can Cud be before it's just considered nothing? Thanks in advance! Leather Report this Post to the Staff

JC Stevens Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 06/28/2021 11:13 am Take a look at examples on the Cuds-on-Coins site. http://cuds-on-coins.com/cuds-on-u-s-coins/ "large pieces of Cud" Not sure what you mean by this. Definition: A Cud is a die break that involves the rim and at least a little bit of the adjacent field or design. The vast majority of sizable die breaks are Cuds. Cuds can assume a wide variety of shapes including ovoid, crescentic, and irregular. Most Cuds represent spontaneous brittle failure. A small minority arise as the result of impacts. No part of a design element will show on a Cud. Cuds-on-Coins http://cuds-on-coins.com/ Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/28/2021 3:35 pm Also Rim Cuds and Die Cuds are taller than any other device on the coin. Even higher than the rim. Die chips are not that tall. A Die Cud is a life ending event for a die. A die chip is not. It can be used for a long time with die chips. Remember Die Cuds are on the outside edge of the die. Chips are on the internal devices. On a Die Cud, the opposite side will not be struck up on that area: Report this Post to the Staff
