    If you notice correctly the reverse side of coin you will see that soldier holding musket on right side of coin has a disturbing posture in manner that his right arm's elbow is way to high on upper arm and makes it look disproportioned and to stiff in way of holding firearm.
    I am surprised that this drawing was OK'd by RCM for it is (in my point of view) a very grave design error which disturbs the rest of coin, everything else is well executed but to my eye it has lost it's charm entirely.
    I love coins for their beauty and history and such a mistake is unacceptable specialy coming from RCM. m1630048_116870_135.jpg
