Excellent. Thanks mate.
New one to add to my list too.

I really gotta pull the finger out on writing all this stuff up one day...

yeah me too and take a heap of pic's..not looking forward to it either Yeah out of all the 2012's I've looked at this was the only one I've found but thought it strange when I seen it

My theory on that strip type 'cud' on the tail is that a sliver of metal got in the press and that's where it landed, coin got struck and voila!  

Technical term might be attached 'struck through'. :dontknow:

Any one else got a theory about it? :huh:

[Goldseeker]

If that is the cud in this discussion, then it is located near his hind leg and not near/close to the end of the roos tail.

Sorry about picking that one up.

all good GS, that's why I took the close up so everyone could see what I was talking about

Technical term might be attached 'struck through'. :dontknow:

Technical term is actually a cold shut. If it were, it would look like a separate piece, like all the ones we've previously discussed. And of course being a flaw, it would be a one-off.

Without having it in hand, I'd say reserve judgement until we either find another, or have a really good look at the edges of it. Given the coin has other cudding visible, I'm leaning towards it being a cud. Especially since there are similar, larger flat cuds all over the roo's back on various years.
