2007 (P) Wyoming State Quarter - CU-25c-2007P-02R(WY) Rim Cud

Description

Cataloged as CU-25c-2007P-02R(WY), this reverse rim cud appears on the 2007 Philadelphia Wyoming State Quarter, whose design features a bucking horse and rider — the bronco buster symbol Wyoming has used since at least 1918. A rim cud represents the loss of part of the die's rim gutter: on the coin it appears as a raised interruption in the design rim that tracks the rim's course. The R suffix confirms the cud's location on the reverse, where it may lie near the bucking bronco design or surrounding inscriptions depending on the specific rim segment affected. Wyoming's quarter design, created by Norman E. Nemeth, captures the spirit of the Equality State — the first to grant women full voting rights in 1869. The 2007 program year also included quarters for Montana, Washington, Idaho, and Utah. CU-25c-2007P-02R(WY) demonstrates that late-program State Quarter dies experienced the same rim failure patterns observed throughout the ten-year 50 State Quarters run.
