Collectinator Valued Member Canada 184 Posts	Posted 04/13/2014 5:54 pm I think I might have a 1932 far 2 nickel, but I'm not sure. The first picture is from the top of the 1, and across. The second picture is to the points of the leaves. Edited by Collectinator 04/13/2014 6:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Collectinator Valued Member Canada 184 Posts	Posted 04/13/2014 8:10 pm Here's a better pic. It's a close call, but the near 2 on Coins and Canada has the line running through the top of the 2, and mine has some space. Any other opinions after this picture?

dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 04/14/2014 01:00 am I think your's is probably a near 2. The best way to check is to start a line at the tip on the right leaf, and touch the top of the 2 with the line. If the line cuts about 1/2 way down the 1, then you're a winner. This method stops the tendency of sneaking the line onto the tips. Here's it done to two of mine: Near 2: Far 2: Report this Post to the Staff
Coin Chick Pillar of the Community Canada 1354 Posts	Posted 04/14/2014 03:25 am I would say near as well. Your line is to high. Report this Post to the Staff

Zonad Pillar of the Community Canada 1472 Posts	Posted 04/14/2014 9:09 pm Put the coins side by side and if you have a far 2 coin you will see the distance from the 2 to the leaf is different from a reference coin. On a far coin the distance from the 2 to the leaf is almost double the distance from the 3 to the 2. On the near coin the distance from 3 to 2 looks to be equal the distance from 2 to leaf.

Zonad Pillar of the Community Canada 1472 Posts	Posted 04/15/2014 08:27 am I have started searching my GeoV nickels for the elusive far coin. I'm about 1/2 way through them and have 2 so far. Buying bulk years ago has paid off a few times. Report this Post to the Staff

Collectinator Valued Member Canada 184 Posts	Posted 04/15/2014 3:38 pm To be able to draw on a picture of a coin, I pull up "Paint". It's one of the apps on windows 8. You copy the picture of the coin, then press paste on paint. Report this Post to the Staff
