doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 05/03/2018 4:46 pm I'm not very good on these. Currently on ebay in an ms63 NGC holder as a large date, but I'm leaning towards a small date. What say you? Report this Post to the Staff

KHatt Valued Member Canada 291 Posts	Posted 05/03/2018 8:06 pm Actually I think it's accurate. Here's an overlay I did with a PCGS graded coin 1875H LD from: https://www.PCGS.com/cert/81176850 The elements are slightly off because the coin in your photo is tilted slightly (i.e not dead-on) but the proportions line up.

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 05/03/2018 11:42 pm NGC got it right. Large Date "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 05/04/2018 01:17 am Yours is a SMALL DATE 5/5 (Low over High), a well known variety...though not particularly scarce.. https://coins.ha.com/itm/canada/wor...bnail-071515 Edited by canadian-varieties 05/04/2018 01:18 am Report this Post to the Staff
doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 05/04/2018 06:49 am Canadian-varieties................... that's what I kind of thought too. Here's another two pictures of the NGC large date, which I think is a small date. Report this Post to the Staff
canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 05/04/2018 2:18 pm It's a gorgeous 1875 Small Date 5/5, I'd love to have it in my collection. I believe my Small 5/5 is a VF30 or EF40... I've only seen one mint state 1875 Large Date in my life, and it was in a MS63 ICG holder, sold for $8000 on ebay and a few months later Canadian Numismatic Company had it crossed over in a PCGS holder and sold it for $38800. https://auctions.canadiancoinsandpa.../76/lot/1060 Edited by canadian-varieties 05/04/2018 2:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
KHatt Valued Member Canada 291 Posts	Posted 05/04/2018 5:34 pm So is this one from PCGS also mis-attributed? It's what I used as a reference photo and has the same dramatic portrait die clashes on the reverse: https://www.PCGS.com/cert/81176850 Report this Post to the Staff
doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 05/04/2018 5:48 pm Khatt.............I think so. Looks like a small date to me too. Report this Post to the Staff
canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 05/05/2018 04:37 am Khatt...yes...that PCGS AU55 is also mis-attributed... another date that is rife with mis-attributions is the Canada 5c 1885... Report this Post to the Staff
TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 05/09/2018 11:49 am Attribution has been a problem with US TPGs. I've had some discussions with NGC on the topic to do better. Here is another example (1885) (disclosure, this is my listing). Not only is it a large 5 it may be a 5/5. 302724975812. Edited by TheCoinHunter 05/09/2018 11:53 am Report this Post to the Staff
