1943 Crack to Cud

I pulled both of these out of the same BU roll.

VERY nice.

 

Great find!

They are related to each other, with the one obviously being the pre-cud die crack and the second the cud. A neat set! I would say they're worth around $175-$200 as a pair.

I can look up the attribution numbers in my cud book tonight if you want.

 

Dang, I way under-priced them then! Sold the pair for $40 because I had no idea. LOL Oh well, they did go to a good home.

 

That'd be cool to have. Thanks

 

I would have said around $50 for the pair in this economy. He got a deal and should be psyched about the pair.

 

That would make a great progression set.

 

There are no less than a dozen cuds in the region under the bust for the 1943-P - so i can't match it up to one in the book (terrible pictures for fine detail, but often useful if there are just one or two for a given date). I guess the 1943 dies had a short shelf life with the hard metal.

 

Not knowing much about the coins I might've paid more than $40 if I was looking to buy.
Very nice pulls

 

Very nice stealies, I would of paid $40-$50 for the pair...

 

excellent progression.
