I'm finding quite a few " Cuds" on my 2023 JFK coins. I "assume" they would be called "errors"; but not so sure they'd be worth anything extra. I'll attach 3 photos of some of the one's I found, and would appreciate your thoughts   |

Thanks for the clarification - So they are " Reed Marks". They caused upon stamping or what makes them, and do they create any value? They are in various places, on obverse and reverse. Just didn't want to pitch them aside until I checked. |

Click on the blue highlighted link. It will tell you what they are and there's pictured examples. There's no premium for it at all since it's just damage. It's not an error. From the highlighted blue link. Quote:So we probably average about one damaged coin like this a week on the forum. They are damaged by other coins in the Ballistic Bag. The coins are damaged when the Ballistic Bags are moved around by forklifts. They weigh thousands of pounds. We most commonly see them on quarters, but can happen on any coins with reeding.

Thanks. I find it odd that it would be "raised" places on the coins, and not indentations. Live and Learn I guess.

Nice instances of reeding hits--not that uncommon.

The RED arrows point to the incuse areas and the GREEN arrows point at the raised metal directly behind the voids.  |

In the future, please do not post photos of scope screens. Use the memory card or a USB cable to transfer images.

Someone would have to explain to me how to do that. I have no clue. Sorry if I did it wrong, but I did it the only way I knew how.
Would be happy to do as requested, but someone would have to teach me how and explain it thoroughly. Maybe there's a link somehow that show how?

You can use a memory card (usually an SD card) in the scope to save the image. Then use a card reader (for example: this) on your computer or phone to load the file. Some scopes allow USB cable attachment to a computer, but the memory card is probably easier. |
