I am a US collector and recently got in a bunch of Canadien coins and am having a blast looking for varieties, but I am a little confuses on this nickel. It is definately the shoulder strap type but the leaves have me confused. On another forum someone said if the left leaf is farther from the denticles than the right it is a far leaf. This one is , but there is a die crack on the right leaf. The rim also appear rather thicker than other far leafs I can find , I don't know if that makes any difference. But there is a distict gap between the denticles anf the left leaf. Any thoughts from my northern brethren?

Yup.. Note how the leaf is almost touching the rim, and the 'I' in DEI is not flared so, shoulder fold variety.
