Description
Cataloged by Cuds on Coins, this retained cud appears on the reverse of an 1806 Draped Bust Half Dollar with the Pointed 6 date and the olive stem running through the eagle's claw, as the photos show. The retained cud indicates a portion of the reverse die fractured but remained lodged in position, creating coins displaying both disrupted design and the outline of the retained fragment.
