I am leaning towards TP1 since the doubling of the 9s circle is higher than the others depicted in the photo from the charlton catalogue. Let me know pls and thanks everyone javascript:insertsmilie('') Report this Post to the Staff

There are other markers that will help identify the coin in addition to the 9. You can also check in the Haxby catalog for help. https://www.vickycents.com Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5594 Posts	Posted 10/01/2019 3:40 pm There are 2 different TP's that have been "officially" recognized, but yours doesn't appear to be a TP1. A full, exactly straight down at no angle will tell us alot, especially a full reverse shot. Report this Post to the Staff

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5594 Posts	Posted 10/01/2019 6:47 pm Yep, it's a TP1. The D/C's at 11 & 13 are there. However, I never remember all of the overpunch inside the tail on the inner-right of the 9. I also don't know what's going on with the mess of(cracks?) at leaf 7 to the denticles. Nice coin, but it's led a hard life. Would Trend for less than $100 Cdn Report this Post to the Staff
