I found this penny the other day and wanted some opinions on whether this should be submitted for attribution due to the cud. I am comparing it to the 1922 Peace dollar ear ring cud. Please tell me what you think! To me the cud looks like a bird.
Not a cud, but a die chip. (Lincoln has a chip on shoulder!) A cud spreads from the edge of the coin.
Die chips are common and don't carry any sort of premium. In fact, most collectors will reject such coins as it is technically a flaw.
It looks like PMD to me, something pushed the shoulder from the left to raise it, then the highest point became worn.
