While it does involve the rim, it looks more like metal that has been shaved partly off the rim and is now lying on top of the coin's surface. When coins are caught in machinery (like Dryer Coins), this can happen.

VestigeWolf Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 12/24/2021 9:11 pm I agree with both. You can see that the rim has been damaged. In addition, Cuds do not look like that as you will be able to learn at the site Spence gave. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/25/2021 8:09 pm Cud's generally look smooth, bubble-like in appearance. I agree, this looks like shaved metal, which would be post mint damage. to the CCF! P.s.- thanks for the excellent photos! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96315 Posts	Posted 12/25/2021 8:31 pm I agree with the above that this is just damage. It looks like it was scraped and metal was moved onto the field.
