TheBurnz Pillar of the Community Canada 586 Posts	Posted 11/13/2017 12:38 pm These auction houses seem to strategically take pictures like this. If you click on the picture it gets a little bigger and better. Unfortunately its the best one they provide. In my eyes it looks promising as the 2 is quite the distance from the maple leaf near by and does hit the leaf very low when you draw a line across. @Canacoins I am asking about the 2 in 1932 not a six.

johnnysprawl Pillar of the Community Canada 1620 Posts	Posted 11/13/2017 3:26 pm I don't think so. It looks like the 2 is as close to the rim as the 3 is Report this Post to the Staff
TheBurnz Pillar of the Community Canada 586 Posts	Posted 11/13/2017 4:10 pm @johnnysprawl I don't think its the rim that has to be close or far from. please look at these reference pictures Near 2 Far 2 Report this Post to the Staff
johnnysprawl Pillar of the Community Canada 1620 Posts	Posted 11/13/2017 4:28 pm @TheBurnz, For it to be a far 2, it has to be far from the leaf, which means the 2 is closer to the rim than the 3 is. Have a look at the clearer photos here and you'll see it: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/ELITE-COINS...AOSwnw9Z86~s https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Canada-1932...AOSw0e9U1B~d Edited by johnnysprawl 11/13/2017 9:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
