middross Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 10/11/2012 12:01 pm From what I can see, on the near rim the end of the "S" in cents flares out making it close to the rim. On the far rim, the "S" doesn't flare out. Report this Post to the Staff
Bm0ney Pillar of the Community Canada 1005 Posts	Posted 10/11/2012 9:02 pm The s near rim has concave fields. s far from rim has flat fields. The shape of the s is slightly flared out on near as middross mentioned. Once you have one of each for sure it gets easier to tell the difference. Report this Post to the Staff

EastVanRob Pillar of the Community Canada 617 Posts	Posted 10/12/2012 01:05 am The way I do it is to look at the width of the part of the S in CENTS that is closest to the rim. If the space between the rim and the S is significantly smaller that the width of the S, its a near rim. If the space between the rim and the S is nearly as wide as the S, its a far rim.
