Dearborn Moderator United States 94892 Posts	Posted 01/08/2026 11:32 am my initial thought was Cud, but the edges of it are very ragged - which tells me it is not, maybe some folded over metal?

Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/08/2026 11:53 am I see ragged ones on CoC, not many but they are there. Also, if its folded over metal, why is zinc showing only at the edge? Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8732 Posts	Posted 01/08/2026 6:54 pm Very nice unlisted Cud! I knew there were a pile of listed 83P Cuds on COC but never paid much attention to how few reverse Cuds there were. Stinks that you have the dreaded zinc rot falling in on it though. I would clean it up the best you can and seal it. COC link. https://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-c...cuds-1983-2/ -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 01/08/2026 6:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/08/2026 11:19 pm I had looked on CoC and none had matched. There's like 100 listed for 1983 and most are on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
