Die Chip. A Cud normally occurs at the rim of a coin. These Die Chips such as your example occurred a lot in Cents minted in the 50's and 60's

 

what Paddy said, but..

a cud ALWAYS involves the rim

 

Yup, go with Paddy.

 

Paddy, what is a cud?

 

Just another way of saying Die Break
I want to share this webpage with you - http://www.error-ref.com/cuds/

 

Let me rephrase: A cud, BY DEFINITION, is a die break that occurs at the rim of the coin (a cud will always touch the rim).

 

Thanks, very good link.

 

Great link! When you get a minute, could you check your cud Ref. book for this one.


I see similar ones out there:

REALLY LIKE.

 

3c has "cud" (broken die that affects rim) and area on the othere side where the planchet metal that was "drawn-up" into the cud was no longer enough to fill the design on the other side of the coin. What do the experts call that?

 

Thanks for the feedback. Don't know what the experts call it, I'm a novice.

 

Very "neat" coin. Now I want a similar one!

 

You made my day. You're my first compliment on a coin. Thanks!

 

Thank you . it makes is a great "teaching coin" when the "teacher" finds out the correct terminology used by error coin experts to describe the characteristic on its reverse...LOL.

 

We have one off that die, too, exactly like that.

 

Which one?

 

Eric's, TJ.

 

Eddie- Do you have a picture of that one you can share?

 

The odds are real good I do. I'll look when I get home.
