The rim damage on the George V is unfortunate but they're both worn less than mine. I hate having to buy the large cents one at a time. Hopefully sometime I'll come across a big bag of them for a reasonable price. Some people on this forum have a collection of several thousand large cents

If you come across a 1907 with an H mintmark, pick it up, they're a bit more scarce. Does your 1907 still have a hint of luster in the center of the reverse?

honestly I'm not sure about luster, held in the light and moved, the entire center has the same "glow" or shine to it to it

i am not familiar at all with the Canadian large cents, where would the H mint mark be located?

and yes, the rim ding is too bad

Check the bottom of the 7 in the 1897. It looks recut, but may just be dirt/crud.

Your pictures are really good! Wish I could get something close to them but so far I haven't come close.

The H mintmark would be right below the date. You can't miss it if you see one

big777bill .. practice, tons of photos, and pulling out a lot of hair.. these pics I am happy with, but it's just now starting to get slightly easier for me

i still haven't built a copy stand, and in my mind I know I can do better - you can too I spent a lot of time on the photo section of the board, just reading what people are doing

fioti - I got both of these from a seller I already had won some things from, saw what else she had for auction, she's been good to me as far as shipping things together.. I just wish she was more careful with packing.. I'm almost positive the rim ding happened on the way to me.. I have a whopping 0.79 tied up in both of these coins
