cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 1:09 pm A die chip can be anywhere on the coin, a Cud is on the rim. Some collectors will refer to any chip as a Cud, but the excepted definition of a Cud must be on the rim. Edited by cwb 06/08/2015 1:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 1:14 pm Im thinking your coin may have taken a hit there and pushed metal over . A Cud is a die chip or break that includes the rim. A die chip is just that on the interior. Report this Post to the Staff
tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 1:15 pm ok that's what I thought just been seeing so many people saying Cud when it is not on the rim lately. Had to double check thought I was crazy I think your right stoneman it does look like it took a hit now that you say that Edited by tweak800 06/08/2015 1:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 2:01 pm The opposite side of a Cud will usually show weakness in the strike from the lack of pressure on the other side. I was looking at the hit also, but I couldn't decide for sure what it was. If you look closely, you will see a line where the rim is. You won't see that on a Cud. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 2:48 pm To me it appears like a fold over fin or something struck onto the coin during the strike? I see the hit on the coin, but the area in question is wider than just a dent into the coin. Can you see under the fold? Report this Post to the Staff
