My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 11/15/2020 9:47 pm I got this today and thought it was worth asking about. It's not in the best of shape but it doesn't have any marks that would have caused this. I took a few different angles so you can see that for your self. I would like to add a little Cud to my collection .haha. thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 11/16/2020 3:40 pm Darn, well I still need to find one for my collection I guess. Cud bumps are on the rim correct? Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 11/16/2020 8:42 pm I encourage you to search Cuds and die chips on your own. There is a search box at the top left of every CCF page. You'll find lots of examples therein. Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 11/20/2020 06:57 am On a Cud the rim is lost because that section of the die has broken off and is missing. This looks like a die chip because the curved line of the rim can still be seen. The die chip is a small hole in the die with normal metal all of the way around the missing metal.
