Okie . The 1965 one cent small beads have a flat field and the A of REGINA points between beads, The Large Beads have a concave obverse and the A of REGINA points at a bead. The poster should just show the entire obverse .  . Edited by Pacificoin

Pacific: Yes, I know about where the A points to. I'm just wondering if the number of dots is different as weel. They usually are.

The number is different just not sure where to research it at present . I found the numbers for the five cents 138 large 119 small beads. Tried Haxby, Charlton, and a google search no answer on the amount of cent beads. With 1965 cents in UNC large and small is easy just by looking for me. Sorry I am sure someone has counted them at one time .

I have an issue with the nomenclature here. I don't see any dots in these photos... according to various sources, including the Royal Canadian Mint, these are referred to as "beads" on the obverse legend.

Not sure what the purpose of the thread is, but going by its name, here's an image of a dot, on a 1999 august quarter.  |

If I google "images of dots", is that what we're talking about?

first set looks like the rim has been flattened out giving the appearance of 'near' dots, or spots, or beads, or whatever we are calling the little round things these days. Quote:
Posting images of dots.
If I had a question, I would ask a question so.... dots? or spots?  |

Nice photo Wade, is that your pup? I grew up with a dalmatian dog... was a great pet for me as a young kid, that dog could run forever behind my motorbike around the fields of home...

The 'Apple Dumpling Gang' rides again. "I have an issue with the nomenclature here.

Sorry that I missed the 'parental warnings' at the beginning of this thread. Didn't realize that a (I am the Greatest gift to the hobby) moderator and his trusty (I know everything about the hobby) side-kick would require them. Let me guess, another potentially informative thread is going to sink away into the "censorship abyss". All for the reasons that two people can't think outside their sandbox. |

All for the reasons that two people can't think outside their sandbox. First off, let's get some things straight here. No censorship abyss here as this can stay for all to read. Personal attacks of any nature will not be tolerated. Consider this your only warning. Secondly, I believe all that SPP and Pacificoin are trying to do is educate folks that may be new to the coin collecting world of what the proper terminology is for the coins that you are depicting. While I am not well versed in Canadian coinage, I believe all of the "dots" that occur on Canadian coins with the exception of the 1935/6(?) coins are actually die chips are they not? As for the beads that you are illustrating, if the RCM is calling these dots now and not beads as you elude to in your first sentence, can you please quote the material so that everyone can learn that the terminology has changed? I'm pretty sure SPP and Pacificoin will be the first to eat crow if what they are trying to "teach" folks is incorrect. |
