Ugly Pillar of the Community Canada 1733 Posts	Posted 01/29/2012 1:05 pm Agreed, worn coins or worn dies most likely. The best way to see true variations in lettering/numbering with accuracy is on uncirculated samples imo. Report this Post to the Staff
cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 01/29/2012 5:21 pm Agreed. Most likely attributed to average wear and tear to circulated coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 01/29/2012 6:11 pm There are two font styles for the 1947 ML cent: pointed and blunt. I wouldn't be surprised if there are also minor varieties with different leaf positions. It would be an interesting study for someone to do. Report this Post to the Staff
