Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 06/25/2019 01:52 am @MW, well for sure you have a nice example of a Retained Cud (AKA "pre-cud) on the reverse. Here is a link to the cuds-on-coins page where others have reported these on the '41 cents: http://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-ce...s-1940-1942/ Also, that might be lamination error on the obv around LIBERTY.

Wait for the pros in the morning. I'm curious myself what' is going on with your penny Cheers Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 06/25/2019 9:26 pm Hmmm no sorry not really. With the coin in hand, do you see any letters with split serifs? If so, which ones?

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 06/25/2019 9:34 pm A nice Retained Cud on the reverse and lamination on the obverse. I do not see a doubled die either. Nice find! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/26/2019 4:01 pm Looks like a lamination issue on the obverse through LIBERTY. Report this Post to the Staff

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3657 Posts	Posted 06/26/2019 10:01 pm I agree with the upthread comments. Retained Cud (now called a "pre-cud") on the right wheat stalk. This one does not appear to be listed on cuds-on-coins.com, so you may wish to send photos to cuds-on-coins and see if it gets listed. The die chip on the right wheat stalk may be large enough to qualify for an interior die break. This can also be assessed by cuds-on-coins.com. Lamination on obverse. These are fairly common, but it's interesting seeing it along with the other errors. Die crack in Lincoln's hair (a/k/a "cracked skull"). These, too, are common, but interesting to see along with the other errors. I paused on the "W" of WE in the motto. There may either be minor doubling of the "W" or (more likely) another small die break on the east side of the right leg of the "W." In addition, the coin is in great shape. All in all, quite a bag find! Report this Post to the Staff
