Has fat letters but also some doubling on obverse. I think a Cud under HM neck? Can I get some help if anyone seeing anything else and to clarify what is happening on obvese exactly? Thank you!

coaster Pillar of the Community Australia 1364 Posts	Posted 10/18/2023 6:08 pm In Australia, regardless of where on the die the damage has occurred, the resulting raised area is known as a Cud. If the damage occurs on the rim then this is termed a rim Cud. Report this Post to the Staff

Coin_poacher Valued Member Australia 73 Posts	Posted 10/19/2023 02:25 am Thanks guys but I need more info about the doubling too pls. Is it just Strike Doubling? Also are we sure under neck is a Cud? Because see how there is a line along the bottom of HM neck from the doubling, well I'm just wondering if the blob is actually a Cud or IF it's Strike Doubling could it be something like metal being pushed to create what looks like a Cud? Look around HM head and IA in Austral'ia' also 2 in date. What's got me curious is how the doubling looks on the A is doesn't seem to look like Strike Doubling to me because it has notches and not a shelf/step like Strike Doubling Report this Post to the Staff
