Description

Cataloged as CU-1C-1966-16 and classified as a rim cud, this is the sixteenth documented cud variety for the 1966 Lincoln cent and the third rim cud among the 1966 varieties. The 1966 Lincoln cent was struck at the Philadelphia Mint without mint marks under the continuing provisions of the Coinage Act of 1965. Cross-referenced as CU-1C-1966-16 and attributed by Cuds on Coins. Collectors assembling a complete set of 1966 cud varieties will note that rim cuds require more careful examination than the larger, more visually dramatic cuds that extend into the field. Struck on a 3.11-gram, 19mm planchet of 95% copper and 5% zinc.
