Hey Everyone!
I recently picked up a 1943 P Wheat cent that has some really interesting pre-cuds and RIDBs. It doesn't look like it's listed yet on Cuds on Coins. I wanted to post some pictures here since it looks like some of the interior die breaks occurred in almost a pattern which seems strange. Even the pre-cuds are either not in a common location (on Liberty) or have odd shapes from what you normally find on other steel cent pre-cuds.

It's a bit of an odd ball. Do you think these breaks are just the cause of excessive die wear?

Very strange. A head scratcher for sure.

That would be my thoughts on this one as well.
