edix Valued Member United States 270 Posts	Posted 02/24/2007 11:22 pm I just pulled out this 2007-D dime and noticed what appear to be some types of errors. The most noticeable things were some sort of blobs of metal on the eyebrow, along the top of the nostril in a curved line, out around the corner of the mouth and the bottom of the chin. These blobs are also plentiful in the hair in different spots. Additionally there is some sort of indent just outside the corner of the eye. And finally the inside "negative spaces" of the letters "O" and "D" in the word "GOD" appear to be drooping down and to the left. I've attached some photos to see what people think.

edix Valued Member United States 270 Posts	Posted 02/24/2007 11:32 pm I just did a little research and perhaps it is some sort of Cud. One ebay seller had a similar 1999 dated type and called it the "Drooling Roosevelt" Cud. Edited by edix 02/25/2007 12:26 am Report this Post to the Staff
laxmaster92 Member United States 1154 Posts	Posted 02/25/2007 12:33 am Those would be die cracks. Cuds only appear on the rim. Thats a pretty nice find, considering I havent seen any 2007 circulating coin yet. Report this Post to the Staff
josie Valued Member Ireland 498 Posts	Posted 02/25/2007 06:07 am What is the grade of the obverse? Report this Post to the Staff
edix Valued Member United States 270 Posts	Posted 02/25/2007 08:55 am The coin is basically pristine. No noticeable wear and a few thin scratches here and there. I'd say MS 63. BTW - Jason Craton wrote that he just sees die chips and die fatigue there. Edited by edix 02/25/2007 08:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

josie Valued Member Ireland 498 Posts	Posted 02/25/2007 5:40 pm Thank to both on description and grade. From time to time I will ask question on coins posted here in error and variety if the grade is not listed,been browsing for a time now in this forum and it will be a really big help for me if I will encouter coins that is graded in every sub forum as a practice while gathering info.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 02/26/2007 3:34 pm As laxmaster stated, Cuds only appear from the rim of a coin. Any 'blobs' in the design that don't touch the rim can only be die cracks or chips, and that's what these are. They are not considered errors because they are within limits of tolerance for normal mint production. In other words, the mint doesn't pull coins like this if they catch them, and they are knowingly released into circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
