No, I don't think so Mrzllewellyn! I see what you are seeing as well. I just can't quite make it out from these pics

@mebecrzy, your pictures are excellent! Now if you can get a clear close up of the area circled will help determine if this is a Retained Cud!

I see a single crack on one end, but it should have two and some movement (design miss match) for it to be a Retained Cud.
Rest in Peace

All what has been pointed out are normal machining problems, happens on all machined metal products so are common "errors". Most unless quite dramatic, will command little if any premiums, but you can find buyers(suckers) anywhere!
