Below are photos of a Shield nickel taken at different angles under a lamp. I noticed there is a Cud near the 1 in 1867. Is there a Cud @ 1 o clock? What is the grade of the coin?

It appears to be a die crack @ 1 O'clock, and a small Cud near the 1 from the date.

Obverse can grade VG8

Reverse G6

VG-8 details due to the obverse scratches.

Thanks everyone.

The Cud and die crack are interesting. The obverse scratches are peculiar because they are only really seen under direct light at an angle. This coin is for my 7070 so I'm not going to be too picky about grade. Thanks again!
