That is not a Cud I'm afraid. Looks like the edge has taken a beating, which peeled some of the metal upwards. Keep looking! |

It looks like a rim Cud to me as well. Not in the greatest condition I'm afraid. |

Oh I'm sorry, I've never heard of a rim Cud as such. My mistake, sorry for messing up on this one. |

The easiest way to tell if it is a rim Cud or not? A rim Cud will extend taller than the rest of the rim. Why:  The shelf that creates a rim on the coin sometimes breaks down on the die. Note the lower image on the right? I created a simulation to show how if the area has chipped away, the rim Cud will rise above the normal rim area. |
