lahave56 Valued Member Canada 340 Posts	Posted Today 1H 34M ago Found this while sorting pennies today. It's all PMD but I was wondering if anyone recognizes the stippling around the Queen's bust or the type of stamping of the obverse and reverse? Report this Post to the Staff

I wasn't sure if the back-back C might have some significance but that's just my mind working overtime. The stippling looks like it might be some type of corrosion about to bust through but the coin otherwise looks to be in decent shape from that standpoint. Thanks for looking!

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21966 Posts	Posted Today 13M ago That stippling is probably from the 3 being punched on the reverse. If you look at the right hand leaf, you can see something similar from the 1 being punched on the obverse. That compressed copper has to go somewhere. Report this Post to the Staff

As I think someone on here said "I'll keep it with my odds and sods". Report this Post to the Staff
