I can't tell if these are Cuds or acid or it's just highly messed with by someone. After the t in trust it looks like a Cud and on the reverse right wheat it looks like a huge Cud. Only weighs 2.7! I'll be an expert someday lol

Not sure what you have but I am certain it is not Cuds, not even die chips.Perhaps photos taken straight on would clarify things.

The reason DrDon saud they're definately not Cuds is because a Cud is a die break that goes to the rim of a coin. If it doesn't go to the rim it would be a die break or a die chip.

That makes sense! I didn't know chips or breaks could be that large. It doesn't help that it's so damaged either. I'll to try to get some good lighting for a straight on picture

Or just damaged coins. When they get this bad, I toss them into my collection of reject wheat cents to sell later on.

That sounds like a better idea. I noticing people are jumping all over the really great condition errors so I'll focus on that for now!
