Huge thank you to PCGS for helping me with this special project! I mainly collect $2 1/2 Indians, and have been thinking about a set like this for awhile. Retained Cuds on the bottom of the reverse are fairly rare, but can be found. This is only the second die crack (not a full retained cud) I've seen on these though, and I've looked at a LOT! I thought this would be a cool way to display a normal die state, the die crack, and the retained cud all together!! Now, think theres a full cud out there anywhere?? Hope yall like it!

Wow! That's an impressive set.

I bet that Coin World would be interested in writing an article on your set. Suggest that you give them a call.

MS grading set too. Low MS anyway. Very cool.
First thing PCGS did today that I like.
Nice set! Enjoy!

First progression set I've seen for this
popular 1927 Retained Cud Die Break.
The coins look very nice in that holder.
These multi-holders are great for errors,
by type, date, progression, etc. etc.
Nice!
I wasn't aware PCGS still did these multi holders. And the black label is sharp! How did you go about requesting this?

Super cool, and well done!
I sent Brett a message here, and he put me in touch with someone who was willing to take the project on.
What was the fee for this?

Awesome display👍
Normal costs plus oversize holder fee. I had to pay that fee three times, which I am not sure was accurate, since it is only one oversized holder? Oh well, I love the final product!
Very cool set!

Cool coins and presentation
You da man JW...
Excellent presentation and great coin finds....What a cool way to display a progression of a die break....Now, I hope someone can find the full cud...Cheers, RickO
ok, I'm dumb. I've looked at the pictures longer than I'd care to admit. Can someone point out where the die crack is on the second coin?
And the cud while you at it. I googled what that meant but still don't see it.
