47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/18/2021 10:27 pm My long last coins finally arrived from Europe. (shipped Nov 04) what are these marks going vertically? Now, it is easy to say PMD...But for whatever reason, I am not so sure. What do you guys say? also, what grade would you give it? there seems to be also an extra WL at the bow thank you all.

Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5404 Posts	Posted 01/18/2021 11:42 pm More interesting are the die repair lines on the obverse through " IND. IMP" . Same phenomenon is found in Peace dollars from the 1920s . Known as " Scribbling" .... Give us a closeup of those ! Also nice Cameo portrait of George VI . Almost wonder if that Is an Obverse die used to strike Specimens , then repaired for use on business strikes . Edited by Pacificoin 01/19/2021 12:02 am Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsguy Pillar of the Community Canada 2301 Posts	Posted 01/19/2021 07:42 am I agree with Jack. Suspect tool bounce on the Reverse die. Obverse die over worked and this would be VERY EARLY strike. I bet even nicer in hand! Nice H! Report this Post to the Staff
47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/19/2021 11:58 am thanks so far guys, Very interesting. I will take a few more close-ups and post them soon. Report this Post to the Staff
47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/19/2021 12:58 pm here is a closeup. it is about the best I can do with my Macro lens Jack and Mike, this most probably does confirm your guesses? so, what about the vertical issue that looks like denticles on rev going from midship-aft down to the first L?

Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5404 Posts	Posted 01/19/2021 1:13 pm Confirmed ! As to the reverse not quite sure , but leaning towards what Mike says in his comments . Would like a photo of just the Cameo portrait . I have a very early strike of a 1952 that was surely struck off of Specimen dies . Just have to dig it out ! Report this Post to the Staff
