tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 10/27/2015 12:15 am Looks like a big chip out of the die and it involves the edge so I would call it a partially retaind Cud? That would be my educated guess Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/27/2015 12:35 am I pointed BJ to this coin. I was thinking interior retained die break. But the displacement has me wondering it that would be the right term? Edited by coop 10/27/2015 12:36 am Report this Post to the Staff

BJ Neff Pillar of the Community United States 526 Posts	Posted 10/27/2015 11:57 am It seems that we are looking at a bi-level Retained Cud and interior retained die break. Though images are definitely not the defining way to attribute such a die break, I am seeing a die crack connecting from rim to rim (through GOD and through WE). There does seem to be a slight die crack (from WE) that does connect to the retained interior die break. I guess one could say that this is an interior retained die break within a Retained Cud. Anyway, I would like to put it one COC with a dual listing, if I can get your permission. Thanks. BJ Neff Report this Post to the Staff

Absolutely, I would be honored. Also, please let me know if you would like for me to send it to you for better photography of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

I don't see that crack being connected all the way. I am wondering if it could be struck through one or more small fragments that are still attached to the coin's surface. Like you said, it is difficult to know looking at images only. I'm sure having the coin in hand would make it all easier. Edited by cwb 10/27/2015 2:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 10/27/2015 5:53 pm What do you mean you don't see it go all the way? To the Rim twice? Check the W in WE and the D in GOD. :P Report this Post to the Staff
