Just pulled this out of a circulated wheat bag. Woo hoo! Been hoping to find one of these and this one isn't in too bad of condition. I just think it's a very cool-shaped Cud, and whether you envision a shark or a porpoise either way it looks like a dorsal fin.

Many collectors collect Cuds. Put it up for auction is your best bet unless you want to keep it.

This one goes in my collection. Someday down the road I'll have to have the big sell off, but not now.

That is a fun Cud to find in the wild. I especially like seeing the weaker strike on the rev just opposite to that Cud.

Does this mean you've "fin-ished" your Cud collection?
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
