johnjkedel Pillar of the Community United States 594 Posts	Posted 01/03/2013 8:43 pm I'm a newbe to this site - from Massachusetts - just came across it while searching google. I'm not a 'serious' collector but do like to 'collect' lincoln cents and Morgan dollars. Can anyone out there tell me if they've come across what I guess might be a die error on one of my coins - 1913P Lincoln Cent. On the reverse associated with the lettter 'E' in E. Pluribus Unum is an area where the letter joins the rim in sort of a triangle pattern. Anyone ever seen this? I have attached a photo - hope it comes out good. - T hanks Report this Post to the Staff

Sounds like you may have a die chip or a die break, but we're going to need a better picture if we're going to help you with this. If your camera has macro capability please use it if you know how. Try to focus in on the area of concern as close as you can. Good luck. Hope we can help more soon. Report this Post to the Staff

Thanks ..//. sorry can't get the pic to upload. It says it must be less than 100 kb - which it is. It also is a jpeg file. Oh well, I'll keep trying Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 8:38 pm Check the properties of the pic. file. Has to be just a tad under 100 Just crop it a little and that will decrease the file size. Report this Post to the Staff

A Cud may be either a Retained Cud, where the faulty piece of the die is still in place, or a full Cud, where the piece of the die has fallen away. Retained Cuds usually have dentil detail if on the edge, while full Cuds do not. Report this Post to the Staff
