Hi guys

I know I have high 7's.
Look at the picture and tell me if it is a low 7...?

Hi Wert,

I check the K of KG initial to determine the variety of 7s. The K of high 7 is thicker and has round ends, I call this the "disco K" (It make me think of elephant pants! ) .

The low 7 has a normal looking K.

It looks like a low 7 to me, wert. And I know you didn't ask, but I've only ever seen large beads on the low 7 (which your pictured coin has). I don't think there is a small bead variety. But it sure would round out the set if there was, eh?

wert - that last photo is a low 7. The way I tell is if the tops of all the numbers form a straight line that slopes upward (roughly), it's a high 7. Anything else is a low 7. I can separate them at a glance now, after having some difficulty in the beginning.
Rest in Peace
