Coin collecting, the hobby that just keeps given! Take a look at my new favourite Two Cent Piece, with its extra large Cud.I have never seen What's your thoughts? Value? How rare is that size of a Cud on the older coins? Report this Post to the Staff

Any chance of uploading larger, cropped images with a neutral background, especially of the reverse? Report this Post to the Staff

(I'm so confused ) Same coin Dearborn, just the reverse, depicting a frilled neck lizard https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1558.html I'd earlier asked if the OP could post a photo of the reverse as I was interested to see if such a large Cud would result in any strike weakness on the opposite side. From what I can see the rim in that area has been affected to some degree. Thanks mleivers71 for the taking the time to do this. Report this Post to the Staff
