kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 01/31/2014 2:10 pm Is the 7 doubled on this 1947 Maple Leaf 50 cents, and if so is that a known variety? Guess I need to get 2014 Charleton... Report this Post to the Staff

pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 01/31/2014 2:45 pm As per Nicklesguy all 1947 ML S7 are repunched. It is one of 1947 S7 dies which has been reworked with with a Maple Leaf added.... If you can find an early die state in real good condition (I think yours is) you can see that is a 7/7/7. There is a good write up on the 1947, 1947ML and 1948 dies in the 2014 Charlton 68th Variety section. Edited by pginrh 01/31/2014 2:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 02/03/2014 12:01 am In the very notch of the 7 I can imagine that I see a hint of a 3rd 7 in the 2nd and 3rd photos, and I can imagine that I see the hint of a third tail, but I've not had any of these in person except this one. Waiting for my 2014 Charlton to arrive... 400 varieties of 50 cent George VI. Yes, a nice coin, my best ebay score ever. Report this Post to the Staff
pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 02/03/2014 08:11 am There are not 400 George VI Major varieties illustrated in Charlton's 68th.... it contains a broad brush of the Major Variety types for each year but certainly not all that can be found (for instance there are at least 8 different 1943 dies exhibiting doubling east of the top loop of the 3 which are not all included). Kbbpll is correct: the third instance of the 7/7/7 is visible in the crook of the 7. BTW kppbll.. this is one nice looking coin... the detail is excellent.

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 02/03/2014 09:53 am I posted the coin in the grading forum a while back, might as well show what the rest looks like here, yes I think it's a good strike. I enjoy what Calgary Coins has to say about George VI varieties here http://www.calgarycoin.com/modern/cd50cent.htm Report this Post to the Staff
