biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 02/06/2014 2:49 pm A Cud is a specific type of die break that affects the shank and face of a die, all Cuds will form at the rim and emanate inwards. Your Cud appears to have at least 3 successive breaks and it is fairly sizable, I would estimate value at $20-40. One year earlier and I would be ready to throw some cash at you to take it off your hands(1975 is my birth year) Edited by biokemist6 02/06/2014 2:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
