    2006 Colorado St. Quarter error

    How would you classify this error? Retained broken die or other?

    It looks like a small cud to me (aka die break). I've seen several Colorado cuds of various sizes on ebay and in forum posts and all seem to fall at 3 o'clock. I wonder if they are all the same cud - just various stages as the cud grows larger? It could also be that the design of the Colorado quarter resulted in that area being prone to such breaks.

      Thanks for your reply. Since there are so many classifications, I was hoping to get the exact type of die break.

        As Russellhome said, it's a cud. A cud is a die break that affects the rim and at least a little bit of the field.
