JC already listed it and just putting up the photos that he used for the listing so kinda small from what I usually post. But I suspect you can see it... 1940-S Lincoln Wheat cent Cud CU-1C-1940S-12R - discovery coin Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 02/04/2019 8:10 pm Hi E & V, For some reason I am a Cud magnet. As fast as I can get to them I find more. There's a tube with 40 of them sitting on my desk waiting for attention. Don't know why, but just consistently lucky at finding them. Report this Post to the Staff

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3663 Posts	Posted 02/04/2019 9:01 pm Awesome find! Congrats! How did that critter spend almost 80 years in the wild undiscovered? It's found a good home now, though. Is your Cud a progression of any of the known RCDs? It looks a little like it could be a progression from RCD-1c-1940S-06R, and the mm looks close.

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 02/04/2019 10:13 pm Hi FortCollins, Generally I do try and look for progressions on the Cuds but haven't had time with this one yet. Hopefully things calm down in the next couple days and I can get to some of that fine-tuning work that gets missed when a lot of stuff drops in at once. But if you could narrow it down to three or five possibilities I could run down them fairly quickly and if it fits any of them. Report this Post to the Staff
