TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 04/16/2015 2:30 pm Is this common? It almost looks like small beads doubled over large beads. Edited by TheCoinHunter 04/16/2015 2:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff

aardspeed Pillar of the Community 921 Posts	Posted 04/16/2015 2:39 pm The "A" in REGINA is to the right of a denticle, so I would think large bead...but I'm no expert. Here is the website: http://coinsandcanada.com/coins-pri...965&years=1.. small bead large bead Report this Post to the Staff
aardspeed Pillar of the Community 921 Posts	Posted 04/16/2015 2:46 pm Actually, here is one of mine I'm curious about too... Any help to determine it to be a small bead would be great...I think it is, but, like I mentioned before, I'm no expert... Report this Post to the Staff
chequer Pillar of the Community Canada 4227 Posts	Posted 04/16/2015 2:52 pm I notice something like that on nickels fairly often and have always thought it could be Die Deterioration, but I'm not certain. Aardspeed, your coin looks like Blunt, small beads. Report this Post to the Staff
TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 04/16/2015 2:53 pm It's a large bead coin. I was more interested in the cause of the "double bead" effect. Report this Post to the Staff

koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 09:42 am I agree, it's Die Deterioration Doubling. Ken Potter Report this Post to the Staff
TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 11:14 am It was pointed out to me (forgive the pun) that this coin is not a Pointed 5. Looking at the over all shape of the 5 as well as some other photos, I would have to agree. It seems the blunt 5 has varying degrees of slant and although this coin has it more than many blunt examples, the thicker shape of the bottom part of "5" is more in line with a blunt "5".
