Thanks again,

So what causes rim cuds? It is a part of the ridge area of the outside of the die that chips away:

I had to add the rim cud area onto the image. To show where and how it does happen. Ken Potters Images, My editing.

Thanks coop for this awesome illustration and simulation of how a rim cud happens! I would not have thought that die cracks would extend so far down on the die, that is cool to see on a real die! Geez... the die producing cuds has mass destruction! All this time I thought the damage was just to the face of the die!

Excellent images. Thanks COOP.

(I've heard the area of the die that forms the rim referred to as a "rim gutter". Does anyone know if this is the correct terminology?)

I believe it is... Error Ref http://www.error-ref.com/?s=rim+gutter mentions rim gutter when talking about rim cuds!!!
