Pretty funky rim waffle type pattern so I don't know if this is considered a Cud possibly a wrong die punch (sorry don't know what it is called) Looking forward to your responses.

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 11/30/2015 6:27 pm A Cud by definition cannot have a symmetrical pattern. It's a chipped off side piece of a die that was overused used to the point of failure or had a metallurgical flaw. My first thought is vice or plier damage from the pattern but yes, full pics are needed Edited by Cascade 11/30/2015 6:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 11/30/2015 7:05 pm Thanks, I can't wait to my first "great find" reply (someday) I would still like confirmation on the little bit of letter doubling on the coin. Is it MD - I am trying very hard to learn how to see the differences in the various types of doubling that I see in the coins. Thank you all. Report this Post to the Staff
