Finally found a better picture of this error . Can everyone see the part image of the queen ? The tiara is sticking above the beavers tail .

Also note that there is no understrike visible on the obverse side . The curved indentation has been speculated on but there was never a concensus on what caused it .

Sorry errone2012 but the scan doesn't do the coin any justice.
I cant see a thing. Is it possible to post a better picture?

If you really want a closer look, it appears to be for sale...

Look at the area below the letter "t" of "cents" - you can see the back of the tiara . The tip of her nose is right above the "D" of "Canada" . These pictures were taken before it was holdered many moons ago . I can't seem to get good scans of holder coins . It doesn't help that not much of the under strike remains .

I was not referring to the scan... I meant that you have the chance to hold it in your hand... and then inspect it as close as you want!!
