Isn't that what Siggi's is showing? Plus the beads on his are smaller than the dots after A & G? I'm sure not in the know on Canadian coins, but...

I guess some just didn't appreciate a rant about something so trivial.
Hello! The pics are pretty small to be able to tell much. It may be a clip, but I have a feeling the E is post mint damage. But I really can't...
Good question. I'm not a lover of toned coins, but I wonder what some will look like years from now, and if the toning will just turn black with age.
It's like the battery commercial LOL! I'm often amazed at how long some of these threads go on, when you figured they'd die a quick death.
