...and another 1858 LD..RP2    Many 1858's have great die cracks over their surfaces.. 2 of the above have d/c's across the reverse centers.. |

Wow! Those are some nice coins!
Maybe you could make a "days of" thread instead? We need more of those in the Canadian Section anyway.

Ok..Changed to "Days of" as suggested by zxcccxz..
Most large dates that I've seen show a weakness in their centers ..Some obverse legends will also show a weak strike and some will be so deep and well struck..
So many varieties to be seen in the vicky series.....

I would say that the "N" and the "D" of CANADA are repunched on above SD cameo 1858.
In the upcoming days many of the coins will have fun details to comment about here.
