Welcome to the forum!
First one appears to be post mint damage. PMD
Second one I can't quite see the doubled forehead but good chance it is machine doubling.Nothing that makes them worth more than a dime.

Need better pics and closer.
A cud is a die break at the edge.of the coin. I think you are referring to the lined on his face. Either PMD or if raised, die crack or die gouge.
The second coin might have machine doubling. If it is as extreme as my screen suggests it might have a little minimal value as a curiosity.
Better pics needed.

Yes, a common die chip in that area of the mouth.
NAV, imo

NAV = No Added Value
It is an error, it is an 'interesting conversation piece',
but I don't believe, even on Ebay, that anyone would
pay more than buck or two at the most, and that's if
you offer them free shipping........These are easily found in BU condition, in various
years, but especially in the past 15-20 years or so.Retired Collector & Dealer in Major Mint Error Coins & Currency since the 1960's.Co-Author of Whitman's "100 Greatest U.S. Mint Error Coins", and the Error Coin Encyclopedia, Vols., III & IV. Retired Authenticator for Major Mint Errors

Die chip...
If you are only interested in value, then you can throw it out on ebay and se if someone bids. If they do, you wont get rich.
But it is interesting enough that I'd keep it as a reference piece. Certainly worth the 10 cents it cost you.

@Hardwoodnhammr .... Welcome aboard... As stated above, the raised spots around the mouth are die chips.... No numismatic premium... the doubling is either die erosion or machine doubling...No added value. Get a Redbook to help you to learn more about coin collecting... Cheers, RickO

Welcome! I’m not seeing anything like a cud in the first picture. Those are usually quite obvious. Maybe if you can point out the exact area you’re seeing? On the second, it looks like die deterioration doubling which would not have any premium.

Just an ordinary circulated dime. No numismatic value or interest.
First, Welcome aboard.
As stated above, #1 is not a cud and #2 is aworn die doubling like the 1955 poor man's double die.
Keep up with your searches.

Welcome to the forum. Nothing stands out on the coins that I can see. To really tell for sure, one needs sharp closeup photos. Keep looking... the good ones are out there.
Took a minute but here is some better photos. I can feel the bump with my nail.
Would a die chip have any value? I imagine it probably common.
Thank you
Generally speaking, no. But many find them interesting.

Die chips are not that unusual and few collectors have any real interest in them. Minor "errors" have been heavily promoted on the internet and have made many new collectors think they have something of value when all they have is an ordinary coin with a defect no one pays a premium to get.
