I cant zoom into the picture however if the I in Regina points directly to the bead then you have yourself a small bead.

It's large beads,small beads have enough room between beads to easily fit another.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

That's a small bead!! Awesome! I zoomed on it and it's a small bead! I know because the middle of the I in Regina is lined up with the dot! Good for you!! That's worth like $5,000! Mines is a large bead. In this picture the one on the left is large bead and one on the right is small bead! Examine yours closely and you will see its a small bead!

It's sorta easy to eyeball, because the bead spacing is different too.
Here's a picture I made a while back comparing the two types.

Hi Donald, You can see with DV's pics that you have large bead coin.

No need to be confused, if you cant fit a 'bead' in between the others, as your picture shows, it's a large bead coin... simple as that.
