koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/22/2015 12:01 am Here is a 1974 Nickel dollar that I shot for John Kosakowski at the Michigan State Numismatic Society Convention 11/25/12. I've been looking at this one for some time not being able to decide if it is worth listing as a variety or not. I think some of the traces of "whatever" are from a hubbing mishap but that may be a stretch. Nonetheless, the concentric lathe lines that are on all the 1974 Ni dollars is an interesting look.

Here is one with tooling marks (or finger feeder marks?), I wrote about this in my CN Journal column a couple of months ago... This example has been found by a few collectors now... Send me a message and I can email you a copy of the article.

koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 12:43 pm SPP-Ottawa, I'll see if I can find that issue. I had been ill for so long that many issues of numismatic publications got past me without reading them. Even after I got well, I was so busy playing catch-up that I still did not read many. Now, I'm finding club journals, etc., still in their mailers. Something to read in the evening when I hit the sack. Report this Post to the Staff
koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 1:33 pm I don't know what I was thinking. I found an image of this one already processed with the listing number included in the file name. I listed it as VCR#18. I guess I just never found time to upload it to the page.

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 2:05 pm Maybe consult the 67th edition of the Charlton catalogue and match your numbering sequence with the new ones listed there? Send me a PM, if you need a PDF of the 1974 variety pages...

koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 4:51 pm Roger, Since this one is not yet listed on my page I can change the number if necessary. However, matching the numbers up will be difficult. I have no images of some, maybe all of those in the book beyond where Charleton started continuing the numbers. Two in the book with my listing numbers (VCR-018 and VCR-019) are for coins of which I never assigned a numbers to the best of my knowledge. I'm lost as to where to go with these unless somewhere along the line I did put numbers on them and forgot. Still, I do not find those images on my hard-drive. However, I can list both of these if I have images of them. Edited by koinpro 04/27/2015 4:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 5:42 pm No worries Ken, I can provide you with images and even coins if you want, of the numbers 18 through 20 that Bill Cross and I assigned while you were recovering... I am working on writing up number 21 for the CN Journal (sort of a variation of #12)... send me a PM with your email. I am happy to share everything...

koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 5:56 pm The Lighting Bolt clash in the book is neat. It reminds me of the reverse clash I listed on a 1975 PL dollar that looked like fire and an Arrowhead behind the Indian. It's been years since I wrote about that one. I don't think clashes were all that much appreciated back then. I'll scan it a bit later but I just found images of a DDR for the 1946 dollar that I overlooked before and should get up. It may be the same DDR others are talking about. Those images are on my scanner. I'll post the 1975 Clash under a new thread. Edited by koinpro 04/27/2015 6:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
