    ...and also a full date. Sometimes the date is partially or totally missing from cuds and off center struck coins.

    Well, now that I think about it, paying cash for a Lotus Emeya would be better.

    Being this was received from a food truck. For a few seconds I thought the cud was a sample of some food that had inadvertently fallen on the cent and stuck. :)

    I don’t care how much money you got, there is nothing like a find.

    Agreed! I found a 1920 wheat leaf in a change bowl at a store a few months ago! Pretty cool! 103 year old coin still in circulation….but not anymore! 😉

    Must have been a vegetarian food truck. If they served beef, well I'd have expected the cow to chew the cud.

    I always think that the rarest st coins are the ones that haven’t been discovered yet. Keep on searching!

    A wheatie in the wild is nice.
    A cud in the wild makes you look twice.
    But a wild wheatie with a cud is quite a sight!
