scoutjim99 Pillar of the Community United States 4589 Posts	Posted 12/06/2006 11:45 pm I do not know how many there are supposed to be but I do know that there is a small bead and Large bead Variety. the small bead variety is the most desirable Report this Post to the Staff
bromac Valued Member Canada 195 Posts	Posted 12/07/2006 11:15 pm The small bead variety has the letter "I" in the word "REGINA" pointing directly at one of the beads around the outer edge of the coin. For the large bead variety the "I" points between 2 of the beads. The Charlton catalogue says there are probably fewer than 500 of the small bead variety in existence.

pattiewhack Pillar of the Community Canada 1152 Posts	Posted 12/24/2006 10:57 pm supposedly the 1966 sm. beads was produced by a few mint employees hoping to make a quick buck by smuggling a few 1966 dollars they had minted and selling them at a later time. They are EXTREMELY EXTREMELY rare and you would be looking at a price above $3000 Canadian in MS-63 Report this Post to the Staff
