[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 512170, member: 4350"]Hi and WELCOME :-), A CUD is a die break that involves part of the edge of the coin and the shank of the die. That would result in a large raised "blob" of metal that involves the edge of the coin. On your coin, the rim is intact so it wouldn't be a CUD. Your coin exhibits what is known as "environmental damage". That terminology is used to describe something that is added or removed from the coin by means such as corrosion or a chemical reaction. We often use it to describe corrosion effects, for example on coins that have been found by people using metal detectors. While this coin may not have been dug up, it is the victim of a form of damage. It has no value other than one cent. Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
