I found this dime in a cheap group lot on Ebay and decided to purchase it and then eventually I sent it in to PCGS as a filler coin at the end of my annual club submission. I understand that there is a rare late die state of the 1834 JR-5 that has a large cud at the bottom of the date, does this example qualify, and if not, is this considered a common die state/stage? Thanks in advance to our resident bust dime experts.

I don't know how rare the JR-5 cud is, but hopefully some expert JR folks can answer that.
Clearly it is a desirable late die state, as it is included on the above site.

Clint I think I made an error in my original post and believe this to be a JR-5, I edited the OP, based on your information. Thank you.

"cud or not"
not.
it is retained.
the example yos posted (along with gr8 info as usual) is a heck of a nice cud!
