new every day.

I was looking at various web sites and I have learned that in 1981 the Royal Canadian Mint, produced about 50 million 20 cent coins for Australia, as well as The Royal Mint in London. Though they are attributed as "Ottawa mint", they were probably minted at the Winnipeg facility. It also said the London and Australian coins were very much identical, but the Canadian minted coins showed unique characteristics. Does anyone have a photo showing these differences?

This site has a picture of the "3½ claws". Unfortunately, it doesn't have a pic of the "normal claws" to compare it with, but it does have some general descriptions of how to tell them apart.
