    Here are some new photos of the original coin in question. I wish the plastic wasn’t so scratched.

    Interesting. If you look at the TrueView, those "scratches" across the forehead/hair and jaw/neck are on the coin. Die cracks?

    Just in case anyone is interested, the coin sold yesterday on eBay via no reserve auction. The final sale price was $202.50.

    I thought it would go a little higher.If you're satisfied, that's all that matters.

    I remember talking to John J. Pittman at the 1986 ANA Mid-Winter Convention about Canadian coins, specifically 10 Cent pieces. He said he still had a $100 face value mint-sealed bag of 1948 Canadian 10 Cent pieces, and that if he ever opened it he would sell me one.

    Sounds about right. The guides are usually very high.
