Nice find. Is it also a "Poor man's Doubled Die" with the last 5 "doubled" from Die Deterioration? Can't really tell from the last picture

The doubling you see on the last 5 is " Die Deterioration Doubling", often seen on this date.

Retained Cud = pre-cud. They changed the name to pre-cud maybe a year ago and I just don't particularly like it so still use Retained Cud.
