Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 12/10/2010 5:50 pm Looks like a chip to me. I think the rim has to be involved for it to be a Cud. Report this Post to the Staff
chrism420 New Member United States 41 Posts	Posted 12/10/2010 5:57 pm I thought it was a chip to but when you look at it through a loop you can see that it's raised from the surface. I also thought maybe a Die Gouge. Report this Post to the Staff
Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 12/10/2010 6:10 pm A chip would be raised on the surface. It is a chip in the die which gets filled by the metal flow, just like the devices are incuse on the die. Report this Post to the Staff
Numisnut Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 12/10/2010 6:11 pm The Cud error is caused by a broken die and results in an "unstruck" area on the coin. While your coin looks like a small broken die, the term " Cud" has usually been limited to coins that have this error on the edge of the die rather than the internal part of the die surface. In recent years, more and more listings have included your type of error. I personally believe that what you have is actually a Die Chip, caused by a die which is deteriorating and damaged. Someone who tried to create this type of error, by adding a blob of metal, most likely would damage the coin and/or make a dark area on the coin surface where the metal was added.
