Hi Folks, Not exactly what the error is here, from the looks of it, part of the die broke and moved out of position, any info would greatly be appreciated, thanks!

I would say the beginnings of a retained cud. I would bet that there are examples of coins from that die with a full cud present.

Can you tell if that section is displaced at all outward or higher?
If it is then it's already a retained CUD.
I can't tell for sure from the pic but I think it is.

It is slightly higher for sure, just not a lot, mostly at the top, but at the bottom the very edge is ever so slighty displaced as well..

here are some closer pics, i would say this is a retained cud then per your descriptions, would you agree, thanks folks!!

I think it meets the criteria. The crack goes to the rim and separates that area on all sides and it's raised. I'd call it a retained CUD.
