Hi All. It is crazy but I get excited when I open a roll of new pennies and see a bunch of grease spots. And so it went when I opened a roll recently and found this little cud on the reverse by the T! Trying to get it together with the photos and light but still lacking good equipment. Hope I am improving.     |

Die chips and cracks. Not a cud.

Hi Coop. Thanks for the response. I was sure since it made to the rim it was a cud! Makecents appreciate the suggestion!

A chip will not be taller than the rim. A cud is a portion that breaks off the die, making the height as much as left over metal will fill.  Even the gutter on the die can be missing:   A die chip is just a die surface void. |

Ok I found several listings on Cuds-on-Coins that looked similar but apparently I was wrong, there must be more going on than I was able to discern! - just when I think I know....I don't really know.
