1940 & 1947

The last two. Years not yet shown. Other than the 1949 ATD, what remains is 18 die-clashed coins representing 1951 and '52, and an unimpressive '43 with mortar set or accumulations under the leaf. Hopefully I haven't been too repetitive and the photos of acceptable quality under the circumstances. C...

1952 #7

Another example of a nice deep die clash under the leaf and a full crease running the length of the stem from the tip of the bud all the way into the bottom of the leaf. Unfortunately the photos don't show how distinct the actual impression is. Top image points out the three points of contact, the b...

1950 #2

On this coin the obverse-die ear hole left a very flat die clash that drops off abruptly creating a stunning half moon. It also looks as though the die is beginning to chip along the edge of the leaf. Other clash lines are well defined as well, including through the 5, and a die chip to the right un...

1941

I'm not fully certain that this crack reaches the rim on both edges - I think it meets the dentical on the left hand side then runs along it to the edge reverse: die crack through CANADA; possible retained broken die http://www.coinsandcanada.com/forum/class/test/1941_cent_001_rev.jpeg

1952 #4

A variation of what we've seen so far... reverse: die clash and chip under leaf + die chip on last A in CANADA obverse: die clashed at two spots under ear (apparently, if left to do so, these two lines on the die will eventually join together thus creating a dome, which leads to chipping at the bott...
