Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 4:01 pm I'm putting some Lincoln cents into 2x2's today and came to this one. What is the correct terminology for this error - A die break, Cud, other.....? Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 4:14 pm I think that's a Cud but it's different than I would have expected. Could be a retained die break that would soon become a Cud. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19201 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 4:49 pm Retained die break, on the cusp of becoming a Cud (after the break falls away). Nice example. Report this Post to the Staff

That Coin Dude Pillar of the Community United States 1427 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 6:41 pm Yeah I agree. Nice find Report this Post to the Staff
CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 11:08 pm Congrats - That is a nice find. I like that better than a straight Cud or the standard RDB. Edited by CentSation 01/04/2021 11:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 11:42 pm Excellent example and should be easy to look up on Cuds-on-coins.com to get an attribute number. These were known as Retained Cuds forever, but recently were re-named pre-cuds. I am not in favor of this name change and still use Retained Cud when filing these. Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 01/05/2021 12:59 pm Will, I was watching your auction to see what that went for. Good price! Hadn't recognized this one as RCD-01R though as have been just blind busy the last couple days and haven't been able to look into anything very deeply. Report this Post to the Staff
