Found 3 of these in a circulated roll. I've enjoyed the PDF copy of the book!

Glad to see my book has been serving its purpose well and everyone is enjoying it, I'll be keeping an eye on this thread to see all of your great finds!

Denny7000,
Unfortunately, the images of the two examples you have shown are one of the many variants of Die Deterioration Doubling and not a genuine doubled die variety. Die Deterioration Doubling can be very convincing at times, I do encourage you to keep looking though, once you know how to spot a doubled die on Canadian coins, it's a skill that is not easy to forget.
Finding and discovering modern Canadian doubled die varieties since 2018.

Since you guys are on the 1979s, here are some great photos of strong Machine Doubling. This coin will fool many!
