Take a look at the Far 6 in this album. The 2 looks kinda of funny to me. Thoughts?

simple, find another and compare.
for me, the images are not good enough to make judgment.

The 2 in the date of the 1926 is completely wrong. Fake.

both 26 appear to be suspect coins. however, would certainly like to see proper pictures, both sides, before final judgment.
photos taken at an angel can be misleading.

Thanks everyone for your opinions. I'll definitely pass on this one. Eventually I'll find a real far 6 (for not too much) ...

I have to agree with Pokermandude the 2 on the far 6 is not right at all.

Just a follow-up: The lot the coin was in "Whitman 1922 To Date Canadian Nickel Collection" ended up selling for $255 USD.
