Bill is right I wouldn't spend money on it to be graded either in this condition especially with the enviro damage to it they will body bag it for sure.

It does mention a similar coin in Griffins Newfoundland and British North America Cents and half cents 1861 - 1936 Monograph 4. The write up goes. Page 14, GR-601d. 6 recut. The CTRIA of Victoria is re - punched or recut, with the O showing the most. There is a die break at the E of REG. The O of on...

You will have some enjoyable reading ahead of you Bill, with lots of key makers to watch for mentioned in the books of said years with excellent pictures for your reference of those coins. You will have a bit of an edge on others when looking for varieties with gained knowledge from books.

I'm looking for opinions on this coin its the 1948 A Point to Denticle how do you tell which one it is the small or large denticles?

Yes I have seen a few web-sites and coin books that show prices for PL + SP coins but nothing for business strike coins I like others have a soft spot for such coins especially in the high grades.

Radius88, this die pair I believe to be RD4 - 0H1 by the picture provided and if it is this pair RD4 reverse was used on 24% of over-dated cents, the 0H1 Obverse was used on 22% of over-dated cents making it the second most common die marriage used to mint the 1859 over-dated cents. I know Rob Turne...

I also have all Rob Turner's books some of the best reference books on Canadian large cent coins I've seen or read, well written and excellent pictures. Well worth the dollars for knowledge gained if you collect large cents your missing out by not owning and reading these books, I also have all the ...
