CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2850 Posts	Posted 11/04/2026 11:47 pm I thought pre-cud at first but after a closer look I'll say it's a lamination crack. RCD-1c-1944-S-03R has a similar look. What says the forum? "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

Try zooming in where the crack/split crosses from the bust to the rim on the far right. You should be able to see if it's a crack or split in that area. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2850 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:11 am Thanks for the replies. I'll get some better closeups later but it doesn't look like a crack to me. It looks like a folded over struck through foil. There is debris buildup to the outside but not on the inside which I think precludes this from being a die crack regardless if it touches the rim. What I'm not sure is why "03R" is considered a Retained Cud since they seem to show the same "folded" phenomenon. The shape and location is puzzling since it looks so much like a pre-cud.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 81177 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:05 pm I'm changing my opinion now with the updated pictures. I'm thinking a Struck Through Copper Foil error in my opinion. It seems too straight to be a Lamination error. Errers and Varietys.
