I moved your topic from grading to Canadian Variety for a better fit in subject matter.

Large Beads as almost 99.9999 per cent are. The 1966 Small beads were NOT available through regular channels of commerce. The 1966 small beads dollar is allegedly a Mintage of 485 pieces. One side the Obverse is Prooflike in appearance and the Reverse is business strike in appearance. They are all pretty much somewhat baggy in appearance . Probably as a result of all being spirited out in the earmarked bag from the RCM.
A cheque if around 4 K will buy you one today. BTW welcome.

Same markers as used for the '65 lrge and small beads.

Large beads - A in REGINA points to a denticle.
Small beads - A in REGINA points between denticles.

Small beads - enough room between beads to fit another one.
Large beads - beads are closer together
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...
