This is the biggest die crack I have seen. It caught my eye so I thought I'd share.

That's displaced enough that it might be considered a Retained Cud. That chunk of die is about to fall out! Good find!

Very nice. I call these pre-cuds or a pre-cud die brake.

The Captain has the correct answer. It is a Retained Cud. Nice find.

Would any one happen to have any information on this type of error? Is there a listing of them anywhere? Any thoughts on what it would be worth

There's no listing for them. They are an iteresting error which might bring a premium from the right collector. I have a couple I've found in roll hunting. It might be worth a couple of bucks or so.

nice example of retained cud--the displacement is easy to see.
