Interesting placement makes it look like there is an apostrophe in IGWT. That is pretty cool.

Thanks for sharing. Congrats. Always nice to see Cuds on moderns that we might come across. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

For what I've seen 2mm or larger will get you a Cud attribution on every denomination. 2 points of contact at the rim or 2mm wide anomaly protruding from the rim. |

It may well be a Cud according to the Cud web site, but to me it is a die crack with a die chip.Old school, I guess. John1 |

Yea by the definition of Cud it is But I see the old school way of thinking It doesn't look like how a Cud "should look" like on the memorial cents lots of more elongated linear Cuds smaller Cuds on the modern coins (2010-to date) I guess comes with the upgrade in technology and all quality control comapred to the 60's etc |

To me a Cud should rise above the rim.  This is a very small Cud (Its listed) but note how it rises as high as the rim? Looks like that area broke off of the die, but didn't affect the rim gutter. It is the height of the void missing on the die. |
