Hello guys and gals, any insight on this error will be appreciated. The "E" all the way into the "T" has what appears to be a chip of metal over top of them. Is it a Minting error, if so what is this error called? Is it common or rare? Is potentially valuable? Thank you, Bleu.  |

This sure looks like a " Cud". Any chance you can get a close-up of it? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

BleuAuron,  Nice little Cud. Check eBay sold values for an idea on current value. John1  ( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion )

Also an edge image of this area would be helpful.

to the CCF I think Spence hit it right. If it was a Cud there shouldn't be a line going across it at the edge of the die.

It does look like it's on the coin not in it.  |

Thanks for the images, but they are a bit out of focus, something you should practice with to get better images in the future, but that said, I can see enough to say that it is not a Cud, I'm not even sure it is a Rim Fin folded over. No material seems to be missing from the edge, so as Rob stated just above, it must be something on the coin. It almost appears like the E was struck up full under the foil, but it does appear to be following the contour of the rim. The coins rim is thin in that area due to a MAD strike, and the foil on top of it looks wider. To be honest, I'm not sure what it is..  |

 Lol, Sorry I'll tighten up on any pictures in the future for sure. While I did see a couple similar ones on the cudsoncoins link from Spence. This coin doesn't appear to have any weakness or really anything on the reverse behind this Unidentified Foil Object, also nothing stands out on the rim at all holding it or looking directly at the rim. It doesn't appear to be inside of the coin in any way either. I don't think it exactly meets the criteria of a Cud but I did just learn what a Cud is thanks to you all. Thank you again I truly appreciate everyone's inputs and thoughts about it.

Sorry for all. I do not think this it is a Cud. Seem to be foreign material on the coin. Spence has a very strong point. For me he is right or not, it is foreign material on the coins on the form is took. NEVER ARGUE WITH AN IDIOT. FIRST THEY WILL DRAG YOU DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL. THEN, THEY WILL BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE.
