I just received this in the mail from a cool Canadian collector.

In this coin, I think I see traces of the Blakesely Effect on the opposing edges. The full-size image is below to see for yourself:

Hey Kurt

Soon you will have all the error coins that's your second 1974 this week I think?

Andre, you're right...the planchet error is a '74 too!
I'll need to start a gallery of Canadian errors.

Thanks Dick! I'm getting better at coins shots, but I still need better control over the highlights.
That said, the lens I use works well for die varieties/errors because it picks up every detail!
