Dies were very heavily overused in the 1950s. This is a good example of that. Dies are wearing out.

@sg, this is a great place to learn and we are glad you are here. For future reference, a Cud must involve the rim.

Just another example of a coin struck by over used dies. Happened a lot on the Wheats of the 1950's.
