Checking my nickel bag, I found 4 1978. 3 are the small denticle variety (one is AU) and the other is a large denticle. Charlton has these as large being the rarer of the two, whereas Trends has the small denticles as the harder to find. I would tend to go with Trends on this one since they are a weekly pub. and can catch and fix errors faster than yearly ones.
My findings are from circulation. 3 small, 1 large, but it seems it should be the other way around... I'm confused.
Another interesting disagreement between trends and Charlton is the availability in mint sets. Charlton shows both available in NC and SP. While trends shows - for the small NBU.
CANADA is far from the small denticles and close to the large denticles. The surest way to tell the difference is to count the denticles,148 small,120 large
