I believe it has a small die crack on the front on the above left side of the D in Canada.

Sorry, but I believe this is a Shoulder fold Near leaf which would be the regular nickel.

Here's a picture of a No shoulder fold 53 for future references. Notice the I in DEI is flared. (key to identifying NSF from SF)

From what I've seen, the serifs, or the flaring of letters helps to denote a lot of the differences in coinage and banknotes....good tip Max

Is it just me or am I seeing things?
Tristen...I see doubling all over the reverse of this coin!
Date, letters, leaves and even the beaver tail.

I looked at the coin with a magnifying glass and there is definitely something there.
