Greeting all,

I have a 1904 Newf 20 cent. Charlton as far back as 10 years ago
says that the die axes is standard rotation - 180 degrees.

My coin axes is medallic. Is this common, is Charlton wrong, do I need more sleep? Does anyone have knowledge that can shed some light
on this for me sil vous plait.

Appreciate any help.

Happy Holidays

this years charlton shows that the 1904 20 cent should be a rotated die axis. Same as US coins are today. Is that what you have? I do not see a listing for any type of variety at least not by charlton. maybe someone could check charest for you if they have it. mine is not with me.

Coinage Axis is up/down......i.e. USA coinage
Medal Axis is up/up.....i.e. modern Canadian coinage

So ...the stated up/down in Charlton should be the standard for this coin is that
what you are saying coinsrfun? 'Cause this coin is not what Charlton states and has stated
over the years so I think that rules out a one off typo.

The Charleton Cat is wrong, the correct die axis for Newfoundland 1904 coins is............Medal Axis. I am sorry for misdirecting you.

appears that charlton has been, and is, wrong sometimes.
HOWEVER to get them to admit it is something else.
