Ok I finaly foudn the 1951 canadian 5 cent, I took photos, I can take more. Now I just learned about the 1951 HR and LR but with limited knowledge. Is this a LR or HR? ALso can someone please explain what to look for in the HR? Many Thanks apreaciated.

I also made a similar thread the other day which was a mistake, I posted a 49 and 52 canadian nickle unstead of this one if a mod could delete it.

Thanks again for this wonderful forum and members.

It's low relief, the A in GRATIA points between denticles,

In high relief the A points directly to a denticle.

The difference between the two is literally the relief on the obverse, one is high, one low.
