the_sifu Valued Member Canada 276 Posts	Posted 11/01/2020 08:26 am I see a bow tie on top, so yes, it is a Large 8, IMHO. Sometimes, if you click on the OP's photo(s) it will pop-up an enlarge photo, if the OP recently uploaded the pic to the CCF site. Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 11/01/2020 10:50 pm It's not a matter of opinion, it's a matter of fact. More pics can't change that. Your coin has a bow tie atop the crown, by definition that makes it a large 8. Don't look at the pic's of 8's in Charlton's, they're confused. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
