<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silviosi, post: 25148646, member: 153002&quot;]If you click on my second link and scrool down to varieties, yes you find Die chip on A. You do not have extra line , just lower part of front water line accumulation as per Canadian denominations, In US will be Die Chip.</p><p><br /></p><p>On Canadian coins you have to be very lucky to find major error or variety. RCM has complet other way to produce the coins then US. DDD for example do not exist. DD&#039;s you can use one hand fingers to account for one year denomination if you find. Many say DD but if you analize better it is MD or Machine Doubbling. They the collectors and dealers like to put as DD for monetary purpose. Also from the point of view of the grading it is different. RCM use well polish planchets (blancs) and extremly well polish coated Dies. Comparative with US coins, a new Mint roll of coins will have all coins at 66 and plus but in reality by canadians standards no.</p><p><br /></p><p>Conclusion: look on those coins different then the US coins. Just think: RCM do not need more then one Master Die and 3 to 4 Working Hubs. It is Low volume. Rarely they rework a Working Hub and will generate an design variety and this just because that Hub do not pass 90% of the design parameters. They use a very strickt detailed Optical Design Recognising system, as they use also for final product.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
