paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/05/2020 10:08 pm Just a neat old Eagle. 1858 Small Letters. Die crack from U in UNITED intersects top of the eagle's neck midway. Retained Cud or die break from just above wing tip all the way down to in between the RI in AMERICA. Reverse die is rotated about 10 degrees C/W as seen from coin orientation view. Cuds on Coins lists it as RCD-1c-1858-02 -- on Mr. Weinberg's plate coin you can see the LH obverse die crack a bit better than on this example. They list it as a "retained Cud." I use the term "retained die break" instead, but to each their own. This is an original coin in a straight grade old white ANACS holder. I'll get better pictures when I have it in hand.

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/29/2020 11:45 pm Sorry for the delayed response. The seller sent the wrong coin, then I had to return it, get refunded, purchase it again, and then wait on it to get shipped again, and they sent the correct coin this time. Not sure if these are better photos but I will probably re-shoot it anyway.
