Those a nice die chips. For numismatic purposes, Cuds are features associated with a coin's rim.

Die breaks. When enough of the metal is missing it changes from die crack, die chip

Die crack and a single chip.
When the metal on the breaks away event more, then it is considered a die break. That is what you have on that area of the design.

Cuds always involve the rim. These would be die chips.

Cuyd are only associated with the rim of a coin, these are large die chips - very common in these locations.
