Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 1:43 pm Found this today and it is my first for a 1939-P. I am not sure which one it is, but maybe a RCD-1c-1939-02R? Your opinions are appreciated, thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 1:49 pm Okay, I guess it's time for a lesson for this old man... I was led to believe that the term "Pre Cud" replaced the term " Retained Cud" and that they were basically the same thing. Clearly I am mistaken. Please, if you have the time, educate me on the differences. Thanks, Coop! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 1:52 pm Well I'm an old timer, so it could be both I guess. They are the same thing. Just the term I learned years ago. Edited by coop 06/01/2020 1:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 2:06 pm Thanks Coop, Retained Cud is the term I have been using as well, but I see that Pre Cud is being used on Cuds-on-Coins now. I'm pretty sure I remember that John1 has been calling them "Pre Cuds" for a while now. As often happens now-a-days, I am a little confused as to which term to use. Maybe, as you say, it doesn't matter... anybody else know anything or have an opinion/preference either way? Edited by Sudz 06/01/2020 2:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73844 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 2:30 pm I like the " Retained Cud" better. It describes it better in my opinion and is less confusing. Nice find by the way! Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 2:36 pm My understanding is, a die crack from rim to rim that hasn't moved is a pre Cud. When it shifts a bit it is a Retained Cud? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/01/2020 7:01 pm Pre-Cud suggests these die breaks eventually developed into Cuds. Anyone know how often that is the case? Report this Post to the Staff
