The father/son collectors, from Ottawa, that you met when taking that grading course with us - found one at the ANA convention in Philadelphia last year in about VG-8 grade. That makes three...

That's great!! R and N have the best little cheat sheet for Canadian cherry picking around. Serious variety hunters, and I'm glad they're in the other end of the country.

I've seen one on ebay but it looked beat up and the photos weren't of good enough quality to convince me that is what it was. |

Upon first viewing the coin my hackles went up thinking it was photoshopped, and got a good chuckle. This is a neat varitey but doubt I'll ever see one in hand. Very sweet!

I notice that the larger reverse die crack at 5 o'clock is on a number of examples I have seen, but not on all of them.
So hypothetically, that should mean more will be found, with a progressive die crack at various stages?

SPP, I have only seen with the die crack at 5. None without.
