I don't see any remnants of the stars left in the Cud. Are they there? |

Wow. That is exciting. Just think of its history. And with a Cud to boot. How did you come to own this gem? |

i paid 500 bucks,oddly enough that is what the seller gave for it himself.it was his 1st sale on ebay so maybe he wanted a garanteed pos fb or it was just too damaged for him.when I saw it thought I remembered it so I searched google images and found this picture-the picture from the same listing he bought it from  |

Dave You shouldn't see any details in the Cud. Since it is created by the die chipping and falling away. If there were any details, it wouldn't be a Cud |

If details remained in the Cud area, it would be classified as a Retained Cud. |
