As many of you might know 2010 was a beaut year for MOR errors. The normal rabbit ears on roo number 1 for 2010 come in tiny, small, medium and HUGE alone.
I've had a number of 2010s with both pre and post cud in the rabbit ear area on roo number 2.
After looking at them (as best I can), I think there may be up to 7 different #2 roo varieties (perhaps more), so here goes.
Variety #1
This one might be perhaps the most common as I've had 1 pre and 2 post cud versions of it. (This one was mentioned in one of the other 2010 cud threads).
The pre cud impression is shown on the left, the two example of the full cud on the right.

Variety #2
This one started off as a nice couple of die cracks with a bulb on the tip of the longest.
The last stage of it I've found it's like a shark fin and the number one roo has a backpack cud to the far right of it's back. The pics on the left are of the same coin. On the lower left pic you can see the pre cud impression of the backpack on number one roo.

Variety #3
This one is similar to variety #2 except that the cud is not as pointed, nor is there any sign of the backpack on number one.

Variety #4
This one I've only seen at die crack stage starting on the ridge of the roo's back. It is accompanied by a spew roo on number one though.

Variety #5
I think these two may be an extension of the same cud. The first showing a die crack similar but larger than in variety #4. This seems to have ended with a spur cud where the die crack meets the roo's back and with a small set of rabbit ears on roo number one.

Variety #6
This is a new one for me. The pre cud impression is similar to that in variety #1 except it's shape is quite different.

Variety #7
Another newie for me. Quite a different cud to that shown in variety #1. In addition there's one on number three's back, number two's back before the tail and a splash cud along number two's back to the right of the number three's tail. *** Added *** I forgot to mention it appears to have the start of a rabbit ears cud on roo number one (though I did have the arrow there).

Variety #8
An earlier version of variety #7. The cud on the second roo has not developed and is only a lovely shaped die crack. The cuds on number three's back, number two's back before the tail and the splash cud along number two's back to the right of the number three's tail are all present. There is pre-cud rabbit ears impression on number 1 roo, though the pic doesn't show it well.

There's just so many 2010 variations I thought I'd try and break it down with this thread having just those with anything "rabbit earish" on roo number 2.
Excellent work there Uni! The last one is a corker. :drooling:

I have already posted most of my Rabbits/Spew Roos into my gallery but my pickies are almost B &W as compared to those above.
I would dearly like to hav a couple of the Rabbit Ears on the Second roo as I don't have any.
Regardless, very nice pickies and finds anyway.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks Goldie, I try to post info on the errors that really take my interest before I have to (unfortunately) send them off to new homes.
The only ones that I hadn't previously sold are the newies (variety 6 & 7) and I'd put them up on ebay not long after posting the thread.
I wish I could give them away, but my financial situation is more than horrific............ Want to buy a farm?
Anyway, here's a link to the ebay items Ebay (http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/walktheunicorn/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=)
Would you sell me the 2nd roo rabbit ears/cuds at your start prince on ebay now and not get clipped for fees etc?
Goldie, PM sent.
Unicorn-Deal done.
Just added Variety #8 to the OP.
