Agrippa Pillar of the Community United States 663 Posts	Posted 08/22/2015 4:00 pm Is that considered a Cud on the reverse? Report this Post to the Staff
stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 08/22/2015 5:28 pm A Cud would represent the loss of metal from the die in that area . I agree with Coop that this is a Die attrition error which means the die at some point became off centered and slammed into the collar. As a resultthe die is dented in that area but not missing metal Report this Post to the Staff
