I know theres two variations - Small Beads and Large Beads, the Large Beads being worth much, much more then the Small. I'm unsure how to tell which is which. What do I have here? Thanks for all your help! Report this Post to the Staff

Check out this page for reference while searching for the rare large beads detached jewel. http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/...BeadsVar.htm Edited by Bm0ney 10/10/2012 06:51 am Report this Post to the Staff
Delareece Valued Member Canada 101 Posts	Posted 10/10/2012 12:17 pm But isn't there a variety of a Large Bead with an attached jewel? I believe someone on the forum talked about this a while back. https://goccf.com/t/88805 How would you figure out if the coin is a Large Bead, not based on the jewel? I've heard that the "A" in Regina points to a dot and theres a dot in between the "II" after Elizabeth in the Large Bead variety. Is this true? If so.. I can't accurately tell if mine meets that standard. It could go both ways. Report this Post to the Staff

The rare one is the Large Beads, detached jewel. The "even more rare" one is the Large beads/attached jewel, which is just an earlier die state of the LB/DJ. Report this Post to the Staff
