I have a 1944 penny with what appears to be a blob / raised metal flaw on it. I have attached images of the coin and a close up of the flaw, I'm still fairly new to collecting, is this error a Cud flaw? If so what does Cud stand for?

Cud
An area of a coin struck by a die that has a complete break across part of its surface. A Cud may be either a Retained Cud, where the faulty piece of the die is still in place, or a full Cud, where the piece of the die has fallen away. Retained Cuds usually have dentil detail if on the edge, while full Cuds do not.
