coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/28/2016 12:13 am Good question. I see the height over the rim. So I sent BJ Kneff a note on this one. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/28/2016 1:04 pm Here is the message back from BJ: Quote: Hi Coop, The die is failing and deterioration is the cause of the missing parts of the die. Theoretically it could be a Cud because extra metal has filled in the missing die parts, but that would be opening a can of worms. It would take a lot of speculation on what to call and not to call a Cud under these conditions. It is best to stay with the definition that a Cud is caused by a die break and not by Die Deterioration. Of course you can look at a die break as a form of premature Die Deterioration (LOL). Have a good New Year. BJ So it is just Die Deterioration at this point. I thought it was a borderline coin, but just not that close yet to the border. I wanted to hear it from him first.
