That CU-1c is in a slightly different location than the OPs
and it doesn't extend down the rim.
Not saying you are wrong, this is just what I see.
Would have to have the coin in hand though to say for sure.

I went back and compared the two and agree it's different than the listing but still lean towards a rim Cud. Maybe JC can put in his Two Cents.

This is a MAD Strike (slight one) and to me I see a 'secondary' rim (fin) - so I'm going for a fold over Rim Fin (for now)

Didn't realize we were counting, JimmyD! Let me hit up JC and see if he'll chime in.

I'm in the rim Cud camp,
(most likely caused by a collar clash.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Sounds good, you know more about this particular stuff than me. In this situation, I am going more by picture comparisons. 6-3

Rim Cud

Thank you for taking time to check it out, JC. Would not appear to be listed either, unless it's just a different die stage.

I really should have asked if others thought it was a collar clash.
The incuse area between the Cud and field would mean it was raised on the die (the rim gutter of the die).

What could have caused a raised area in the rim gutter? A misaligned die clash?
