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.

@jfe, I agree with @e&v's assessment but would only add the reminder that by definition a Cud must involve the rim.

They are fun to look for. I have a few others like this put away for the grand kids. With all the zinc cents rotting away, they might be worth something. Thanks to all who commented.
