He first used the term &quot;design cud.&quot; </p><p>What was once a collector&#039;s term has now been accepted by the minting industry and the numismatic field for the type of mint error it describes. The concept is not that different from a cow&#039;s cud that is ruminated from one stomach to another. In coining the ruminated material is metal from the mass of the blank filling the cavity broken away from the edge of the die, or from the collar.&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>This website coin talk is cited for the images where I found this info, so possible someone on here many moons ago wrote the article about it and did the research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
