<p>[QUOTE="enamel7, post: 2057444, member: 18054"]A rim to rim crack is just that, a crack. When the design inside the cracked area begins to show a shift in the design it becomes a retained cud. When it breaks off completely it is a cud. Cuds are only on the rim or attached to the rim. Missing areas on the interior of the coin are chips. If the chips have cracks running through them and become more exaggerated this becomes an interior die break. You can find lots of these on the head of Lincoln on cents.</p><p>Most important thing to remember is please don't get your info from Wikipedia. This info can be wrong and quite often is.</p><p>HH</p><p>enamel7[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
