John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 08:39 am Why would there be FG initials when it is a Canadian cent? Not seeing it with that pic.Can you post a better pic with the area in question circled? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21646 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 10:32 am No way for it to be a die clash. Probably some form of PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 1:21 pm Cant possibly be a clash of any type, the letter F does not appear anywhere on this coin. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
Brice0113 New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 1:29 pm Thank you JimmyD. That was helpful. John1 if I knew why there would be an FG on a Canadian coin, I wouldn't have asked the question myself. Wouldn't you say? The F is plain as day at the 1 oclock position to the 9. If you cant see it, then me circling it certainly won't help. There is something right beside the F resembling a G. I dont know what it is. Hence my inquiry to the forum.

Brice0113 New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 1:31 pm DBM, do you see an F there or what do you make of it? Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 07/09/2018 01:02 am Yeah I see an F. I also saw Jesus on a piece of toast once. http://time.com/90810/its-perfectly...-study-says/ "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 07/09/2018 01:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5593 Posts	Posted 07/09/2018 04:09 am There is also nothing on Liz's profile that would cause any king of a clash that would resemble a letter. I think that it's just the dirt or corrosion build-up that looks like an "F". Report this Post to the Staff
