tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 04/02/2022 01:38 am I found two of these in a roll last night. On an MS coin the metal along the crack really stands up above the surface of the coin and wanted to try an odd angle for a photo. Didn't come out super awesome but here is the coin and my effort. Thinking maybe something like this would be good for Ray to image with his killer equipment and skills. 1953-S Lincoln Wheat cent die event - pre Cud RCD-1C-1953S-02R Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97162 Posts	Posted 04/02/2022 10:44 am Very nice die crack, and (as mentioned) the clash under the chin on the obverse. Collecting since 1972.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 04/02/2022 2:09 pm Nice image showing the vertical height of the metal. This is much better than a simple die crack. This is a really nice example of a pre-cud. If the reverse had been the hammer die the piece of the die would have definitely fallen out by the time this coin was minted and produced a Cud.

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 04/02/2022 4:07 pm Yeah, it's a pre Cud not just a die crack, but admittedly I started that by talking about the "crack" when I really should have said "break". Report this Post to the Staff
