Thank you! As to attribution, I noticed there are five varieties with the sturgeon listed on Wildwinds, but have not yet read up on them to see...

I'm still leaning towards cud, myself, but @paddyman98 knows a lot more about this kinda thing than I do.
I'm not a modern die variety guy. I deal with the old stuff, mostly. Paddy?

I've seen them that color. I think it looks nice. But I agree with @ldhair that it's worth more if left in the proof set.
Scratched. Knife wounds. Sorry.
Cool. It certainly looks like a cud to me. For damage to have moved that much metal, there'd be a deeper gouge there. Yes, cleaned, and...
