jfeed Pillar of the Community United States 1259 Posts	Posted 12/02/2023 10:02 pm Good evening CCF. I have to admit that I don't know a whole lot about Cuds and die chips so I'm asking for help with this coin. I looks at the Coins-On-Cuds site for reference as well as several other reference sites, but still confused. First of all, the cent appears to be a cracked skull , but when looking at the reverse, it's got a bunch of "retained" Cuds. Both wheat stalks as well as "chipped" letters like the T in cent. The dots are also elongated but in a different direction than a DDR. I don't see anything that matches this coin so maybe you can help me turn a new page in my learning book. Sorry for all the photos, but there's a lot to show. Thanks for you help and advice. uploaded/jfeed/20231202_55scuddoublerightwheataa.jpg[/img Report this Post to the Staff
