Trapperyt New Member Canada 8 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 3:45 pm Hello, I'm awful new at this coin rolling and collecting, but I am wondering if someone here can help me. I have the 1915 Charlton Standard CDN coin book and have been looking at is as I go through rolls of nickels. It appears to me that a 1965 nickel I have is a Large Bead example. (Boy! I hope so!!) Can anyone identify it for sure from these pictures? I would greatly appreciate the help. I hope the picture are not too blurry, but I believe they are sufficient if one knows what he is looking at. Thanks, * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Trapperyt New Member Canada 8 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 4:18 pm Thanks for your help. I apologize for the bad pictures. I must get a better set up for taking photos. The Charlton book shows the large beads if you go by the II in Elizabeth II. The right edge of the left I lines up with a bead, and not in between beads. This is what I was trying to determine by the pictures. I am unaware of how to tell about attached jewels in the back of the queen's head. Thanks again, Report this Post to the Staff
