David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1610 Posts	Posted 03/27/2026 8:37 pm Hi everyone, I've just noodled a 1960 Venezuela 1 bolivar coin. Numista notes 2 varieties based on thick and thin lettering. Unfortunately, no image is provided. Does anyone have a reference image so I can tell the difference and determine which variety I have? Thank you all Report this Post to the Staff

This is the thin one apparently. I posted a thick one too, but it was incorrect. Looking again. Edited by triggersmob 03/27/2026 11:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1610 Posts	Posted 03/27/2026 11:25 pm Thanks Steve although I have to say, certainly doesn't stick out. I'm squinting to try and see a difference. I'm doing OK. Usual week in week out of work. How's that cyclone treating you? * Edited by Staff - This is a Family Friendly forum Lets try to keep it clean. * Report this Post to the Staff
triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9352 Posts	Posted 03/27/2026 11:40 pm I did some more checking, but can't find any pic of the thick. I found one site that describe the thin as being low relief, and thick as being high relief. Maybe the high relief is from coin sets. https://www.numismatica.info.ve/en/...s-bb01v2.htm Glad to see you're fine. Same here, but hoping to retire in the next few months. Cyclone was bad up north, but only steady rain, and not too much wind here. Edited by triggersmob 03/27/2026 11:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
