Retained Interior Die Breaks on the obverse, and Die Chips on the reverse.

Die chips on the reverse. By numismatic definition, Cuds are features associated with rims.

It's a Cud only if the die breaks along the edge resulting in a coin with a raised area of metal along the rim of the coin.

This is a Cud on a Jefferson nickel. When the Cud is large enough it can also result in a weak area on the opposite side.

Looking for random anomalies on coins and hoping they match up to something collectable will take you a lot more time, wasted effort, and disappointment repeatedly finding out you have nothing but post mint damage, useless Machine Doubling, Die Deterioration, or minor insignificant imperfections (etc.).

Spend some initial time at places like error-ref.com, doubleddie.com, varietyvista.com, conecaonline.org, coppercoins.com etc. to find what actual and collectable coin errors look like.

A good way to start is, for instance, separate a bunch of pennies by date. Go to varietyvista.com and, date by date, use the reference there to see what errors are known for that specific coin/mint mark. Look for those specific errors/varieties using the pictures provided. After doing this for awhile you will KNOW what an actual error looks like and not have to waste time on face value and damaged coins. :)
