I found this from a collection that was passed down to me by my Papa. I think it's a Retained Cud. I think there's some displacement going on, so that's why I am pretty sure it's a Retained Cud.     Errers and Varietys.

Nice find! I would agree, a very early stage of a Retained Cud, you can see the displacement at the upper part of the wheat and field. COC's definition of pre-cud, Retained Cud and Cud. "A "Pre-Cud" is a precursor to most collectible of all die break errors called a Cud. The Pre-Cud "AKA Rim-to-Rim Die Cracks". When the die break starts to show lateral spread and horizontal offset it now becomes a Retained Cud. If the break separates from the die the result is a fully-fledged Cud."

Thank you both, Brandmeister, and HondoB! Everyone is in agreement with the Retained Cud assessment.
