It is a die chip, not a Cud Cuds always involve the rim right out to the edge of a coin

And are taller than the rim as void would be deeper than the rim gutter if it were a Cud.

@coop @dearborn It's a Cud. Very reputable people run this site and examine the coin very close it would not have been listed if it wasn't a Cud.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement and also second guessing. It got me thinking I decided to look at it more. Excitement in the hobby can play with you brain. Now I took a second pic of my coin I posted here it is attached to the rim. I know that Cuds "flow over" the rim and make it look like one as pictured in the grey (black and white pic you'll see second). So my coin is the early dies state of the Cud just starting connected to the rim and getting bigger. Any opinions My coin below from original post;  Separate coin with a clear Cud

Also once the blob of metal appears on the surface of the coin that's connected to the rim indicates a break has occurred on the surface of the die. No matter how large or small, as long as it's connected to the rim it's a Cud.

@gorham_collector home page from CUDS-ON-COINS ... Quote:a Cud is a marginal die break; an error produced when a piece breaks off the edge of a die and involves the rim and at least a little bit of the adjacent field of design. i dont see a piece breaking off the edge... other wise all those lincoin cents with the die breaks from the bottom right or left of the memorial (including spike heads) would be classified as Cuds and not die cracks

If you are so positive that this IS a Cud, Instead of throwing names around without any backing, Why not invite Mike Diamond to step in and give us his personal evaluation of it. After all he is a regular on this show here. I do not Think it is a Cud., I think it is a die chip with an associated crack. (future Cud.)
