Die chips, a cud will run from the rim/edge inward or be somehow connected to the rim/edge.

Agree, that is a die chip, a cud is caused when the edge of the die breaks off leaving a blob on the rim.

Agree with above responses.  Cud example:

Another cud.

Looks like a minor die chip with no added collector value.  If these interest you put it in a mylar flip and store it in a box labeled Minor Errors and Varieties.  If you roll hunt you will occasionally see things like this to put in the box.

Hello I was looking at your neat large die cud Lincoln cent when I noticed something. I believe this is also a clashed die strike. This coin was probably struck soon after a die clashing event that caused the die to crack. The broken die also had this clash on it prior to the mint replacing it with a fresh one. See photo.

Yes it does show the results of a clashed die.  The clashing make have been what caused the die to break, or the die may have already been broken when the clash occurred.  Impossible to say which unless you were able to accumulate a lot of coins from the same die pair and then arrange them by die stage.

This is the die clash overlay from MadDieClashes.com for a 1969-2008 Lincoln Cent to check out the coin in-hand as clashes are difficult to fully show or see with just pictures.

[Redline68]

Interesting and helpful overlay.  On closer inspection there is die clash evidence.  Moreso on the front, but there appears to a little on the back as well near the memorial roof and between the pillars.

Coin found in pocket change approx 1980.
