papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 11/22/2011 10:32 pm I find it easier to look at the H below the caribou if the H straddles the denticle than its a large if the legs of the H line up with the denticles than its a small Report this Post to the Staff
wert Rest in Peace 1988 Posts	Posted 11/22/2011 10:36 pm Well DBM I did like you said and that brought me about half way around the quarter, so I continued and got 119 denticles...Could be out by one, cause your eyes play tricked when you are counting all the same shapes...Looks like LD to me.

wert Rest in Peace 1988 Posts	Posted 11/22/2011 10:41 pm papeldog Look at the pic, is that what you mean about the "H" lining up with the denticle...? Report this Post to the Staff
papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 11/22/2011 11:08 pm The one in your first picture is a large denticle if you look at the picture the denticle is between the legs of the H if it was a small each leg of the H would line up with a denticle. Hope this helps Report this Post to the Staff

papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 11/22/2011 11:20 pm Not a problem wert, you can also double check with the last A in Canada it will point to the denticle for the large denticle coin. Report this Post to the Staff
