As mentioned, die chips will be raised areas where the die chip leaves a void on the die. Thus the raised areas where there should not be raised metal. Not a Cud issue. Die chips on wheat cents are very common on the Wheat cents as they used these dies way past the normal retirement. It would be like forcing people to keep working and seeing the accident rates and bodily hard rates on seniors. Thus these dies were continued to be used beyond, beyond normal usage. On the lower right wheat grains, it looks like a struck through debris issue is on that area. But not a really bog deal. (just an explanation of what we see there) Looks like it remained in place. But doubt if the weight was increased any that could be weighted. The die chips are common and note the flow lines onto the reverse rims, showing that that die also was aging when your coin was struck. |

Coop, the issue here is not the die chips in the date and mintmark. They are markers that appear on the Cuds on coins attributions that I referred to in the opening statement. I suspect that you have not looked at those examples as well. If you have a look at those examples, which are highlighting the right wheat ear and are still convinced that my example is just a worn die, ten perhaps you should contact Cuds on Coins and correct their interpretations as well. Well it seems that most people do not bother to read opening statements for new replies. Just a quick look at the coin followed by an opinion. Often not even addressing the subject matter. Advice is often put forth to do somework. I always do that before considering posting a coin. Looks like I am just wasting my time. I have received only one reply on this that even offered any possible reasonable explanation. Thank you Spence. I guess that is as far as I am going to get here. |

Dowhat, that link you posted up above in the ()'s only refer back to a CCF page and only shows Cuds at the rim. not a Retained Cud from Cuds-on-coins. So now that I got my roofers up on my roof, I can go look at Cuds on coins and that unlinked reference you posted in your opening post. Give me a few minutes. |

Ok, It certainly appears to be the 05R But can it be a different Obverse die used?
On your coin there are small die cracks on the 9, 5, and smaller on the last 5. There is also one on the bottom loop of the S of the MM.
What I see on CoC are larger chips on the 55 on the stage 'A' and no chip on the 9.
on the stage 'B' a nice large chip on the 955,
also all the chips on the date don't have the same shape as yours either.
But on either one, I'm not seeing any chip on the MM, like yours.
I'm thinking a different die pair here.
And sorry for the delay - life happens to all of us.

Thanks for the input Dearborne. A different die pairing would explain it.

So, if CoC already has a 05R in its logbooks, maybe you can submit your coin to them showing a different die pair. And it HAS to be a different pair because your chips are smaller than stage 'B' AND had a chip in the S.

Dearborn, great suggestion. But I have no idea how to meet their criteria for submitting images to COC. Mb and pixels and resolution means nothing to me. This coin is one year older than I am. I have no computer, no printer, only this smart phone I can barely navigate.
It will consume more of my time to fool around figuring it out while I could be searching more rolls. No way am I tech savvy but I know when I see something, thanks to information provided herein.
I would be glad to let someone else submit it just so I know I learned something. Anyone interested?

I, myself have never submitted a coin before, so I'm out (besides, I'm just a teeny bit younger than you.)  Edited by Dearborn

I see many thingd going on Here. I saw the Lines, which I also suspect a Very Worn Broken or Breaking Die Used. Known Die States are an Excellent Pin point Accurate, Very Fascinating Topic Too....... Good Call John.  .... Best Wishes, Mike |

Thanks Mike, the chips were one of the things that were bothering me - until I just stared at the OP's and CoC's...

@Dowhat: Your emails are turned off and I cannot send you an email - can you please send me one so we can coordinate with sending in your coin? If you are having issues with your emails maybe you can get help from Bobby, or one of the Moderators.

Dearborn, Cuds on Coins only accepts submissions through email (images). And they must meet their parameters to be accepted for consideration. I will tinker around with making them proper and see what happens. Thanks for the offer though. |

Yes that is true, but we have someone to get the images and submit it in your name. -makecents- is willing to help you out with this process. I have been talking to him about this new submission, and he has experience with it. |

Dearborn, I think I unlocked my email. A very generous offer on both of your behaves. I would like to take you up on it. It will take me a month to figure out WTH a zip file is. I already missed a new SKH attribution submitted to you all here, because my submission couldn't be used.
Try and PM me. Thanks
