IDB - Interior Die Break. Known as a Die Chip. A cud involves the rim then into the field. These are CUDS - From my collection.
Omg i must sound stupid... I didnt know it had to be rim into the field. I just thought it was raised added metal to the coin. Thanks for teaching me lol the spot on my coin is raised so a chip didnt come to mind.
I just found another one in the same year.. same stalk but not the same exact spot... must be common in that year.
IDBs are common on the wheat stalks. I'm guessing it is because of the tiny ridges of the wheat are/were more prone to breaking off during the minting process.
A cud must touch the rim. Since this is on the wheat stalk it would be an interior die break. A die crack causes this effect.
I don't have any wheat stalk die breaks but I have quite a few cuds. Here are a couple of my favorites:
Not stupid, just uninformed. Now you have learned something new, which is one of the reasons these forums exist, to teach and pass on information. Someone stupid would have argued with the knowledgeable, even after several of them explained why it wasn't a cud.
