numisnut1960 Valued Member Canada 57 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 5:55 pm How many varieties of '53 Dollars are there? Charlton doesn't seem to be very clear on the subject. Kind of conflicting info. Am I correct to think there are three? FWL - SWL - ARN? Or are there just FWL and SWL.? Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9903 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 6:01 pm There is no ARN and I believe Charlton's is clear about that. There are: NSF, FWL and SWL; SF, FWL and SWL There are also some minor varieties. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 10/31/2021 6:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff

numisnut1960 Valued Member Canada 57 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 7:17 pm One of the reasons I am confused is that the coin with the longer waterlines in the preceding pictures was sold to me, and labeled, as short waterlines by a dealer at Torex. So it would be nice to clear this up. Report this Post to the Staff

numisnut1960 Valued Member Canada 57 Posts	Posted 10/31/2021 7:31 pm Ok. So what's the variety with the shorter waterlines? Report this Post to the Staff
