Hello, would like your opinion on this 1953 Lincoln Penny please.

It appears to me like there is Cud on the 5 on the date, also do you think the S & T in the word TRUST appear double? Would this be considered a mint error?

Thank you

Not a Cud,it is a die chip. Kinda common. S & T look like die wear.

The 5 has a die chip in it. As dies wear out, pieces break off leaving these around the smaller devices like letters and numbers. What you see on TRUST is the displacement of metal on the worn die, tends to move outwards, sometimes seen in the distending of letters(here) and also a raised ring may form around/near the rim. No premium, normal die wear(deterioration)

a Die Chip at the 5 and die wear at the S & T. They are technically errors, but so minor the coin is spendable. A Cud is a die break involving the rim.
