The Coins and Canada pricing guide for large cents has entries for a "1920 Large" variant and a "1920 Small variant." Large and small what? Leaves, date, letters, schozola, what? Can anybody shed some light on the diffrence between thees two "varieties"?

Re: 1920 1 cent Large/1920 Small
Welcome to the forum
Large and Small would be the size.
In 1920 the RCM changed over from the large cents (think Queen Victorias) to the
small cents that we see today. This was done as a cost saving measure.
