cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 06/20/2013 10:48 pm I was wondering if anyone remembers any post on Doubled Reverse Legend for the 2012 Grey Cup Loon? I put one aside and I tried to search the site but nothing came up. I might not of had the correct search criteria though? I will get some pics up of the coin I have. Just wondering if it has been discussed here before. Thanks. Edited by cladhunter13 06/21/2013 12:35 am Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 06/20/2013 11:27 pm Here are a few pics of the coin. Sorry for the quality...I just took the pics while holding the camera in hand. I took the through a 30X loupe. Showing the split on some of the letters: Increased the digital zoom on this one but the lighting is not great. Trying to show the separation on the 100: Trying to show more separation. Really need to use a tripod when shooting through a loupe with high zoom. LOL!: They should be good enough to show what I'm seeing. Wondering if this is common for the 2012 Grey Cup loons. Thanks for any info. Report this Post to the Staff

Have a good weekend all and still wondering if anyone has noticed if the doubling on this Loon is fairly common or not. Cheers Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 06/21/2013 9:37 pm The security detail (Maple leaf in the circle between 100th and the cup shows minor doubling on the right side of the circle. The leaf itself is not completely formed...missing detail around the leafs stem. Th "t" of "th" has doubling as well as the "e" above the "th" of "100 th". Most of the reverse legend has at least minor doubling including the denticles. Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 06/21/2013 10:40 pm Thank you. I saw the "o" of "coupe". I was not sure if it was a chip or just the design of the coin. I think this is actually the first Grey Cup Loon I have had. LOL! There is a lot going on with the Reverse of this coin. The obverse is normal. Report this Post to the Staff
