coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/06/2019 01:35 am So far it is a die crack and a chip issue. Not a big error. When the die deteriorates a bit more, then it will be a rim to rim crack, the a Retained Cud and then a Cud. Die break: Retained Cud: Die Cuds: What causes these. Die wear/ die failure and dies ready to be retired: Edited by coop 06/06/2019 01:37 am Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74497 Posts	Posted 06/06/2019 02:15 am The left and right wheat stocks are apparently the stress points on the die, explaining why this area is so prone to Die Cracks and Die Breaks. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 06/07/2019 11:25 am Yes, the die has cracked from the rim to the wheat, and then a chip developed by the edge of the wheat to the crack. cracks frequently chip along their edges. Report this Post to the Staff
