pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 08:26 am I agree, the term Cud does not apply here. This does appear to be a tiny die defect that is possibly a small chip. Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 12:40 pm " Cud" is one of those terms that is losing its original definition. To truly be a cud the rim has to be involved. In this case it is a die chip under the "E". But cud is now often used in lieu of die chip. The same happened with other numismatic terms and they persist because people understand them. Eventually (alas!) they will become correct. One that became correct years ago is the term "penny". The US does NOT have pennies. Look at the reverse of the coin in this post. It is a "CENT". Another one that may soon become accepted is "double die". Sorry, the correct term is "doubled die". But for how long? Report this Post to the Staff
