Title: 2005 50c - cud or PMD?
Post by: Pedro on January 15, 2015, 07:00:28 PM
Interested in views as to whether the lump on the person is a cud or PMD. I haven't seen a cud in that position before and the shape is a bit unusual. I'm leaning towards a cud as it does appear to be raised although I haven't able to capture it all that effectively.

Looks like a CUD to me - I can't see any ding that could have resulted in that.

I agree with Mr T.

Looks good to me too!

I've not seen one there before either Pedro. Good one!

Thought I'd have a look and see if it was in Nevol's group on CCF. It's not mentioned in the HUUUUUUGE number she has on page one of this thread but it is in a post by The Coin Hunter in ..... "the last post" ..... on page 2.
