SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 05/09/2015 11:55 pm Was looking at the dollar with a macro lens and found this shiny obverse die crack, through the GIN in REGINA. See pictures and all comments welcome. Edited by SilverDon 05/10/2015 12:05 am Report this Post to the Staff

thedollarman Pillar of the Community Canada 4911 Posts	Posted 05/10/2015 12:20 am a very nice yet some what common find...depending on how long this die was used that crack looks like it easily could have become a Retained Cud or Cud. Feel free to call me Will. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21626 Posts	Posted 05/10/2015 08:14 am That die crack on 1953 SF Dollars is known as Variety Obv. 002 according to Charlton and appears on the SWL. I have one with the same crack on mine. Nice looking coin. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21626 Posts	Posted 05/10/2015 7:06 pm I may be wrong, but it is my understanding that the die crack through the word "REGINA" on the 53 SF appears only on the SWL. The 53 NSF also has a die crack variety that shows through the word "GRATIA" Report this Post to the Staff
