These pics are very difficult to evaluate, especially if the coin is behind plastic, as seems to be the case.

Is it from a double dollar specimen set? Looks like a bit of extra RCM lacquer to me.

SPP-Ottawa its from the proof like set. its in the same set as the dollar with the limb on the island. the 50 cent coin is not right either. I should check the nickle, quarter and dime. I used soft light on the obverse to show the raised metal. both sides has lots of lacquer. you should see what underneath that lacquer.

Almost looks like it was struck through string, it looks indented on her upper back/shoulder, It could be the lighting though IMO.

Quote: why does the mint apply. some much of the junk on the top of these coins. You're about 40 years too late to lodge a complaint on that issue. Laquer is easily removed, these coins are a dime a dozen, you should be able to find unlaquered ones for under a buck apiece.
