Die chips, are part of the die events that happen to a die as it ages.






Not a plus for this. Some call these
Cuds, but that term is different than what is actually is. It's like comparing a door ding, to a totally wrecked car. A die event that happens and goes on without note. There is no fixing these die chips. The chips leave a void on the into the die, deeper devices. Thus these are just a die aging event.


Recently I noticed that the die chips seem to be happening on the areas affected more on chips. With the die hitting each other, something has to give. So during overlays, these chips are noticed on the shallow devices of the designs. Chips are just die events, a
Die Cud if a die life instant retirement event. You could have half the coins with the same die chip on a die, but a
Die Cud are limited to just a few strikes. (until the employee hears the sound and shuts down the machine)


When this breaks off of the die, it leave a huge void that is filled with available metal from the planchet. Note hop the opposite side of the coin has not design from the other die? Because of the void there is not resistance to make the metal form that design.

What is the difference between a die chip and a Die Cud? Are they different events to a die?
