CU-25c-2013P-01(WM) Rim Cud
Error
Description
Rim cuds are among the most dramatic die errors in numismatics, and the CU-25c-2013P-01(WM) on the 2013 White Mountain National Park quarter provides a striking example. A cud forms when a piece of the die breaks away at the rim, leaving a void that produces a raised, featureless blob of metal on the struck coin's edge. This particular cud appeared on a Philadelphia-mint regular strike from the America the Beautiful quarter series, honoring the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire. Cataloged by Cuds on Coins, this variety stands as the first documented rim cud for the 2013-P White Mountain issue. Unlike doubled dies or repunched mintmarks, which require magnification for detection, rim cuds are typically visible to the naked eye, making them accessible entry points for new error collectors. The size and position of the cud on each individual coin may vary depending on which portion of the die fragment detached and how the break progressed during the die's remaining service life.
