<p>[QUOTE="rickmp, post: 1651450, member: 28047"]The "major die crack or cud" is actually rolling machine damage. Notice that it is a circular gouge and that it matches the circular gouge across Lincoln's jacket. The doubling looks to me like machine doubling as it is flat and shelf-like. The letters and numbers have been flattened by some kind of impact. IMO, put it back into the wild.</p><p><br /></p><p>A cud is caused by a broken die causing the metal to rise into the break and always includes the edge of the coin.
