Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 02/13/2008 4:36 pm I commented once that $2 rim Cuds were more common than $1 rim Cuds & was sort of 'howled down, (not here)' for the comment. The thing is, my stats now prove it. These coins searched stats are just since I started keeping figures, Jun 2007. The Rim Cuds found are from when I started noodling, maybe 4-5 yrs ago, but it's easily seen that I search way more $1's than $2's. $2 coins searched - 5370 - 44 Rim Cuds $1 coins searched - 7831 - 28 Rim Cuds I also have a further 10 x $2 that I call 'folded rim' which are not included in my stats. Other people may call them rim Cuds but I don't. I've probably tossed back 20 - 30 of these 'folded rim' coins, as there's so many for 1999. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Edited by Nevol 02/13/2008 4:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Zaggy Valued Member Australia 432 Posts	Posted 02/19/2008 10:20 am So is that picture what would be described as a 'folded rim' Cud or just a 'regular' rim Cud? Report this Post to the Staff
Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 02/19/2008 4:50 pm That one above is a regular old standard rim Cud. I don't have the camera at present (it's not mine), so maybe a description might not go astray until the camera's available. What I call a 'folded rim', or 'rim fold' occurs when for whatever reason one area of the coin ends up with an edge that's unusually high & this edge 'folds' over on to the rim. I believe they're caused by a 'collar clash' during the minting process. The result is a bit similar to a Rim Cud, but does not cover the entire width of the rim. Some are a bit like a oval that's been pulled from both ends, wider in the middle & tapering on both ends., others are just uneven shapes & blobby looking.

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 02/25/2008 10:41 pm With my limited camera skills, this is the best photo I can come up with This does not look like a 'real' rim Cud, that's why I refer to them as rim folds. They are not very thick. Image Insert: life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Edited by Nevol 02/26/2008 7:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 12/02/2009 11:16 am Here's a couple more that I found a while ago: I found 2000 2 dollar coins are pretty difficult to find - never dreamt of finding one with a Cud!
