A Cud area of a coin struck by a die that has a complete break across part of its surface. A Cud may be either a Retained Cud, where the faulty piece of the die is still in place, or a full Cud, where the piece of the die has fallen away. Retained Cuds usually have detail if on the edge, while full Cuds do not.
Not a Cud,they are die chips. A Cud always includes the rim. If it is only on the rim it is a rim Cud. If it starts on the rim and goes into the fields of the coin then it is a Cud. John1
