Cud?

I have never found a cud American coin, but looking through some random coins, I saw this:



Would this constitute a cud?

Not positive but on the yes side. The coin is very nice!

 

YES. The band that is....

 

I do believe congratulations are in order.

 

Thank You, Thank You !!

 

I am not sure Kentucky, could be solder. Something about them look odd.

 

Not impossible...

 

My thought is die chip. Cuds are caused by a broken die and although that does touch the rim it doesn't look like a broken die caused it.

 

After I looked at the picture, that's what I started to think. Could a die-chip be the start of a die break that would produce a cud?

 

I suppose that is possible. I am by no means an expert. Was hoping someone who is would opine.

 

If there is evidence of a die crack running between the blobs of metal, then yes it could be the start of a pre cud
