coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/23/2021 09:39 am The is a die chip called a BIE. A Cud is when the outside edge breaks off the die. When part of the die breaks off the die, there is a void in the strike that will be filled and it will be above the normal devices on a coin: Note the opposite side of the coin will show weakness because of the die loss. A die chip is an event that happens to a die. When a Die Cud happens it is the retirement for a die. So the die chip is a minor event. Common to see on the newer coins. Common on the 1950's wheat cents as they run the dies way part normal retirement. Report this Post to the Staff

Lmhatt Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 03/27/2021 4:29 pm Thank you for your time. I am realizing that coin collecting is much harder than learning another language. So much to learn.... Report this Post to the Staff

I keep going back to the Glossary almost everyday to figure out an acronym. I also look at a lot of the 'error' coins passing by here trying to see and figure out the error (or non-error). I'm much better at just plain collecting, but as I'm also finding out - there is MUCH more to it... Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
