Cud on 2002p dime?

[Bonnie]

Just want to confirm that this is a cud in the shape of a D on the torch, it is raised. Thanks

i'd say die chip. very common on dimes, both sides.

Cuds are typically attached to the rim. This is more likely to be a minor die chip, die gouge or small die break.

I Agree with MintErrors, this is an Atypical die chip from a Die becoming more worn, noted by the loss of detail in the Torch & Flame as well as other devices on the Revers.
A good read comes from Error Ref on the subject of Cuds. Happy 4th of July everyone.

Agree with JC` sending you the link. You will se where a cud is a die break that involves the rim and at least a little bit of the adjacent field or design.
