Hello community, I would like your opinion on this 1932 canadian 5 cen. Pictures of this auction are not the best. In your opinion is this a far 2.  |

That is really hard to tell from this picture. I wouldn't want to venture a guess on that one sorry.

These auction houses seem to strategically take pictures like this. If you click on the picture it gets a little bigger and better. Unfortunately its the best one they provide.
In my eyes it looks promising as the 2 is quite the distance from the maple leaf near by and does hit the leaf very low when you draw a line across.
@Canacoins I am asking about the 2 in 1932 not a six.

I don't think so.
It looks like the 2 is as close to the rim as the 3 is

@johnnysprawl I don't think its the rim that has to be close or far from. please look at these reference pictures Near 2  Far 2  |
