Three weird areas on the reverse of this Jefferson nickel: 1) raised on rim & damage on edge at C in AMERICA, 2) raised on rim & some damage on edge at O in OF, and 3) Cud (?) inside rim at about 10:00. Thoughts?
The fourth pic could possibly be something ( Cud or die dent), but the others are just damage. Is there any edge damage near the area shown in the fourth pic?

Cuds go from the rim inward into the coin obverse or reverse surface and don't have damage on the edge of the coin do they? The edge is formed by the collar die right?
I suppose the collar could be broken but then that area would be raised too, not dented.
The picture with the red arrow. I'm wondering if it's part of the rim thats folded over on top of the field? The picture from here the field doesn't look cracked. I'm not sure if that is how to tell if it's a pre Cud or Cud. We're here to learn. Let me know if I need more learning please.
