Could you elaborate on the concept of a cull coin, please? I've heard the term mentioned in the cryptocurrency community but remain somewhat unclear on its specific definition and usage. Is it a type of coin that is deemed unworthy for circulation due to some sort of defect or imperfection? Or is it perhaps a colloquial term used to describe a less valuable coin within a particular cryptocurrency system? Your insight into this topic would be greatly appreciated.

In the realm of coin collecting, a subset exists designated as "cull coins". These are coins that do not meet the standards of general collectibility.

When a coin is excessively worn or damaged beyond what is considered ordinary for a collector's item, it is typically classified as "cull condition".

Such coins often exhibit significant wear and tear, including rust and crustiness, which detract from their collectible value.

Common examples of cull coins include those that have been heavily circulated or have suffered from environmental exposure, resulting in corrosion and deterioration.

Take, for instance, the 1943 penny depicted below. It is rusty and crusty, a prime example of a coin that falls into the "cull condition" category.
