hoppyg Valued Member United States 89 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 5:37 pm Hey all, I just picked up this 1863 Indian Head cent today. The reverse is showing what seems to be a large Cud but the thing that stands out to me is that the design of the rim is on top of the area in question. This makes me think that this could have been a bad planchet, because I would think the design would be missing if this was a Cud. Please let me know what you all think. At this moment I am at a lose. Thanks for the help :) Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 10:19 pm That is why it is called a Retained Cud. It is not a Cud yet. That part hasn't fallen off the die yet, it is still retained. Report this Post to the Staff
