Cuds are on rim of coin note exterior die break. Interior die breaks are on inside of coin. What you have is a die clash remnant.

Pics are a little blurry to tell for 100% sure and the cent has PSD, but considering the visible die clash on the reverse, it very well could be a die clash at the back of Lincoln's neck.

Here is the definition for cud from our Glossary, with photo links below it:

Cud: A rim to rim die break, resulting in a piece of the die breaking off and falling out. The coins struck by such a die will exhibit a “blob” of raised metal along the rim where the normal design element should be. Cuds are always connected to the rim, else they are called interior die breaks. Due to the missing chunk in the die, the opposite side of the coin will exhibit a weakly struck area as shown in the 2nd photo below. Please visit cuds-on-coins.com for cud listings and attributions.


and here is the Definition and photos for Die Clash from our Glossary:

Die Clash: An error that occurs when the dies come together without a planchet between them and they strike against each other, transferring a portion of their designs onto each other. Each subsequent coin struck by these dies will show portions of the designs on the opposite sides of the coin and in opposite relief. The first picture shows clash marks of the memorial columns on the obverse, the 2nd picture shows the back of Lincoln’s neck in bay 3, and the 3rd photo shows the upside-down Y of LIBERTY in bay 2 as well as clash remnants in bays 3 and 4.
