1977 Lincoln Memorial Cent - CU-1C-1977-15 Rim Cud
Error
Description
Cataloged by Cuds on Coins, this variety documents a rim fracture on a working die that reached terminal failure during its service life. A rim cud represents the loss of part of the die's rim gutter, which appears on every subsequent coin as a raised interruption in the design rim that tracks the rim's course. CU-1C-1977-15 carries no additional cross-reference designations beyond its Cuds on Coins catalog number. All 1977 Philadelphia cents were struck without a mint mark from the standard 95% copper alloy. Attribution by Cuds on Coins.
