You're right okiecoiner, about this one being generally referred to by collectors as type 1. I was trying to respond to DEVLEC's question as to "turning type 1 into the type 2 and vise-versa" and why Jim listed them as he did in his catalog.
I was just confused a bit on the listing..and if there had been a change..(there has not..) Thanks for clearing that up Plil310,..and okiecoiner.. |

Coin # 38 was Haxby PC59-31a2 (31a+E32a).
This coin has the same obverse as the DP9 #5 which is Haxby PC59-31a4 (31a+E32c).
The 31a2 does have a repunched 9 and is listed in the 2011 Charlton on page 285.

coin #41 should be easy to figure out from this obverse die crack.  |

Seems like we need some catching up to do here!
Mystery Coin #38
I identified this as Obv31a earlier
The reverse by the die cracks on Leaf 12 and Leaf 16 gives:
Obverse 31a State 4
Reverse 32a State 2
So this coin is a PC59-31a2 (31a+E32a)
And now that I have a 2011 Charlton book in my possession: The variety is.
"Repunched "9" in date - Page 285 - Gravestone C7"?
It matches that repunched 9 that is missing a little chunk right in the centre of the 9.
(just read your post above after I wrote this, guess I was correct haha.)

Mystery Coin #39
Looks like die cracks between the NA of REGINA, the first I of VICTORIA, and the E of DEI
The most identifiable one looks like the E of DEI
"ID by Obv Markers" -> Clicked on "E" in DEI on the die cracks pictures
That gives: Obv 45a,24,38,41
The only die crack that goes through the centre of the E is Obverse 38 - State 5
And since the reverse is posted:
The only reverses that match Obverse 38 are:
Rev E39,E39a,E39b,E39c.
The Repunched 9 gives this one away as E39b
Gotta look at everything you can on the vicky cent pages, theres so much!
PC59-383 (38+E39b)
Obverse 38 State 5
Reverse E39b State 1

Mystery Coin #40
I can see a Die Crack in Leaf 12
(after clicking on "ID MY COIN")
Wide gap on Vine loop #7, Vine loop #2 has a large gap -> That gives group I
Then I clicked on the C in CANADA in "Repunched Letters"
*blinks eyes* Looks like a quadruple punching on the top of the C in CANADA . WOAHHHH
The only thing that really matches is Obverse 45a
Obverse 45a corresponds to only two Group I reverses: I7 and I7a
I7 has the 9/inverted9
PC59-45a1 (45a+I7)
Obverse 45a State 1 (no Die Cracks)
Reverse I7 State 2 (due to the Leaf 12 die crack)

Mystery Coin #41
"ID by Obv Markers" -> Clicked on "G" in REGINA on the die cracks pictures
That gives: Obv 16,44,45b,54a,64a,80a
The only die crack that is very long and infront of the G is:
Obverse 44. State 5
Since theres only one Reverse that is paired with 44 is I6
And since theres only one die state combination.
PC-59-441 (44-5 + I6-4)
Just learned that you can indicate die states such as Obverse State 5, Reverse State 4 as (44-5 + I6-4)
Thats not the states on this coin, just an example.
Come on people don't be shy! Join in!!

Could be a G in REGINA or a G in GRATIA :) Will have to check both G in GRATIA didn't pan out, but G in REGINA gives lots Looks like an Obverse 1a Here's one for you! Mystery coin #42 (One I found marked DP 9 #2 (Type 2) on an auction in the US and sold to canadianvarieties) The hint being its not a DP 9 #2 haha   Edited by GregJG

Two very nice and desirable varieties! That 232 is really stunning GregJG. Here is mystery coin # 43. Another heavy obverse crack.  |
