CU-1C-1919S-13R & 14 Rim Cud
Error
Description
Among at least fifteen reverse cuds for the 1919-S Lincoln Wheat Cent, this thirteenth entry extends one of the deepest cud inventories in the series. Post-WWI economic expansion drove demand for small coinage, and San Francisco struck approximately 139 million cents. Rim fractures result from concentrated striking forces at the die edge where the raised rim meets the collar, and when a section separates, the cavity produces a raised featureless blob on subsequent strikes. Cross-referenced as CU-1C-1919S-13R & 14, cataloged by Cuds on Coins, part of the broader effort mapping die failure across the 1909-1958 span. This features a rim cud on the obverse and one on the reverse.
