I can't tell anything from those pictures. In addition, can you please point out what you see?

hello margie1977 do you have what I think you have for a coin. please get a clear shot if this is what I think it maybe. you need to get a clear picture. I seen one very similar at the club meeting recently. the gentleman collector. told us all what he has been offered for the coin. you need to get a clear shot. what do you have for a camera. I can tell you even if you have a friend with a cell phone or yourself try that they take great images. because if you have what he has. you got a valuable coin.

Margie - try this if you haven't already. Find a solid object of some mass preferably at a focal distance that will allow you to capture the shot without a shadow but requires only minor zooming. Take a few pictures. Use the edit tools on your phone app if you have them. Crop on your phone. Upload these to your computer. Do more editing their playing with Contrast and Brightness. Adjust color and saturation as needed. Crop again if you have too much background. Then upload to the Optimization tool here at CCF to reduce file size. This should do the trick.

There are many Canadian varieties many are clashes. A common one is clashing above the date. It looks like a hanger. Sometimes multiple hangers can be seen. Other varieties for a date can be found at the Coins and Canada site. Have a look. Good luck on both fronts!

the coin that came into the club. that belongs to and very old gentleman. his coin is about 85 percent nickel with very little copper. on the coin here I see shiny spots like nickel. but from the image its hard to tell. his coin is in very good shape it would be a high grade. the club I attend has about 35 members. you should see some of the collection there.one asked me if I ever saw a 3 cent penny. I said no but he has two they are American coins and they are pristine in condition. I hope this coin is the same but I don't know until we see better photos

oh, right, maybe what she is talking about is the colorization, a sort of goldish toning. I would normally attribute that to some sort of experiment, or some sort of environmental reaction.
