[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 7520400, member: 59677"]A cud is a die break that includes the edge of the die (rim) and thus often includes a piece of the die falling away. Net-net for that part of the coin, there is nothing to press against the planchet and it gives an unfinished appearance.

That happened outside of the mint, hence PMD.[/QUOTE]
