cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 01/31/2011 3:34 pm I recently picked this one up. I just couldn't resist! The pull of the dark side is strong! LOL! The seller had this labeled as a Blunt 5 Large Beads. Is that accurate? I don't know what that description means. I'm thinking this would be called a broadstrike rather than "off center" since all the design elements are present. I'm also thinking it would grade somewhere in the AU range. Do you agree? I have much to learn! Report this Post to the Staff

pennylover1010 Valued Member Canada 200 Posts	Posted 01/31/2011 5:59 pm Yep, large beads. Usually people use the A of regina in relation to the beads to distinguish. Your coin presents some problems! That's a nice broadstrike. Not sure if it would make AU with the hits on the cheek. Still a beauty. Report this Post to the Staff
