So much so that I really thought it was a new reverse die. Is it a retained internal Cud? Or something closer to the "extra corn ear" quarters. I leave it to the experts.

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7063 Posts	Posted 12/19/2020 10:17 pm The term " Cud" is used when the die break involves the rim. What you have is a RIDB..retained internal die break and a neat one at that...time for the gardeners to trim the tree... Edited: Opps...Tanman2001 is correct IDB...my bad Edited by Greasy Fingers 12/19/2020 11:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
jmkendall Pillar of the Community United States 1590 Posts	Posted 12/19/2020 10:39 pm Thank you Greasy Fingers! I'm not really all that familiar with this aspect, and all could think of was " Cud". Now I know! Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4405 Posts	Posted 12/19/2020 10:50 pm That area seems prone to die breaks, I've seen on lot in that exact spot. This one is especially large though, fun find. Technically this just an IDB (Interior Die Break), it is not retained. The broken piece of the die completely fell out, the die did not hold or retain it, so the struck metal could form to the empty space.
