Josh Allen New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 09/14/2025 06:39 am Any info would be greatly appreciated. Too much time spent researching already. My guess is a Retained Cud hammer die, but what do I know. And I couldn't tell you if its worth $2 or $200. Like I said, I couldn't find much info out regarding this type of error or pricing. Great forum, new member, first post and thank you to everyone who makes it possible. Report this Post to the Staff

Can you show us full coin images, both sides? Then we can help. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 09/14/2025 08:36 am Welcome. This looks more like it might be a lamination issue that happened to be near the rim. The recessed line parallel to the rim seems ragged and not what we'd expect to see on a Cud. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

Your cent is not a Cud, it is either a lamination or damage that has caused the rim to fold over. Report this Post to the Staff

Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10496 Posts	Posted 09/14/2025 7:01 pm Looks more like some rim damage with meatal movement.
