kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 03/05/2014 2:24 pm I'm thinking this is a Wide Date Pointed 5? Either with a flare at the end of the 5 instead of a point or possibly a 5/5? What do you think? Edited by kuh_85 03/05/2014 2:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff

pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 03/05/2014 3:26 pm This is a flatback-9, wide date, pointed 5... I am not sure if the mark below the tail of the 5 is a faint double-punch impression or just a mark on the coin...is it raised? Report this Post to the Staff
kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 03/05/2014 4:36 pm Thanks! It's in an ICCS flip so hard to tell but I think it's a scratch. Report this Post to the Staff
pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 03/05/2014 5:06 pm Looked at my 1945's.... there is one with the 5/5 visible below the tail of the 5 that looks just like the coin that you have pictured and all other markers look the same... So I'm pretty sure that you have a matching 5/5 but its not one that Charltons included in the 68th. Edited by pginrh 03/05/2014 5:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Lots more varieties out there I am certain! Report this Post to the Staff
pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 03/09/2014 09:22 am A picture of the coin with the 5/5 is seen in Charlton's 61st at the bottom of the page. The 5/5 is not identified but it's there. Report this Post to the Staff
