I cannot tell how to tell the difference between the two versions and don't have a good enough camera to count the beads(bad eyes) can anyone tell me if this is the large or small bead coin Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21606 Posts	Posted 07/05/2021 1:08 pm There are a couple of visual ways but I find the most accurate is to count A quarter of the beads ( from 12.00 to 3.00) If you have approximately 29 It is a Small Bead, if you have closer to 34, it is a Large Bead.
