Hey, they only made about 25 million of them, and coinsandcanada only lists 33 varieties, so this won't take long. :) Bellmaker, what was your point again? Report this Post to the Staff

DEVLEC Pillar of the Community Canada 3234 Posts	Posted 11/29/2014 08:59 am "Wire rims" are a very good sign of a superior strike and are often seen on specimen strikes. ..remember.. sought after and not damaged goods..as was suggested earlier.. A nice cameo showing on this 42 Good observation..bellmaker.. . . Edited by DEVLEC 11/29/2014 09:01 am Report this Post to the Staff
Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 11/29/2014 11:20 am Quote: This is not a collar clash but this: Wire edge... Perhaps. What makes me wonder about this explanation is I have seen/owned other wire edge coins, with a very sharp & high fin on the edge (2-3 mm). On these tombac coins the doubling on the rim is usually comparatively low & lumpy. I'm not sure what to make of it. Report this Post to the Staff
