This coin was in such nice condition and had the pre Cud so I picked it up for $6.53 including shipping. The down side of pre Cuds on top grade coins is that they aren't very showy. The plus side is that you really get to see the crack. The reverse is true for circulated brown coins. 1940-S Lincoln Wheat cent die event - RCD-1C-1940S-12R    |

You almost got a 2fer or a 3fer on that one.

Have you ever found any this BU further along with an actual Cud? |

There might be a listing for this on in later die state? Looks like a slight Retained Cud starting on this on. |

Thanks folks! VW, I've seen a lot of top BU coins with full Cuds on them. They show a whole lot better than the pre Cuds do. And Coop, um, what? I gave the full listing attribution for the pre Cud in the original post. |

Nice reverse E/W die cracks, Is that one also on the obverse starting at K12 to K3?

Excellent visibility on those cracks. nice pick.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

The only die cracks on the obverse are two short, minor cracks around the lower lapel. The mark through TRUST is a stain, although there are some minor rim Cuds in that area but not significant enough for a listing. |
