<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2402658, member: 19463"]There are several types that are always left facing. Many right facing types have a rare few left facers but I'm not aware of a regularly left facing coin that has the oddball right facer. There are even a few issues with close to even numbers each way. In a few cases the left facers denote a different denomination but that is not the case with most of them. We are left with guesses - each worse than the other.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
