Is this a CUD?

I had to kill the picture to draw out the 2 and 00 in the date. The date isn't worn off - just not printed.

Cheers,

I don't see a cud. What do you see that you think is a cud? Can you post better photos?

 

Filled die error in my opinion. Others to follow...

 

Sorry - thought a CUD was a broken off part of die omitting part of image. Only thing about this penny is no date printed and the L in liberty botched. It this considered an error - even if a filled die ? Ill try to post a better pic.

 

A cud occurs when a piece of the die breaks off and will produce a blob on the coin, not just missing details. Also (and this is a detail that many seem to forget), a cud includes the rim. If it does not include the rim it is simply a die break.

 

Here are some better pics with a comparison penny beside it.

Just a filled die. Not really an error of any sort..

 

that is a greased die.

and Thad is correct--
cuds are ONLY when the die break involves the rim.

This is an error, not anything to get excited about.

 

Help me out here if you will. I know a cud occurs only when it involves the rim, my question is when the break is on the rim not extending into the field of the coin is it considered a cud? Part of me thinks yes the other part thinks it would be a collar chip or break. I just received my 2010 unc sets and found such an occurrence on a quarter. Any thoughts?

 

That sounds more like a rim die break.

 

Yes Hobo I agree when I said collar I was meaning rim so that means basically that it is a cud without entering the field of the coin.
