Re: 2021 "Matte" Reverse
Welcome to the Discussion board Grenette!
The missing dots, which we call beads, do not affect the value either way.

Re: 2021 "Matte" Reverse
I initially found 8 of them scattered in different rolls of an unopened mint box. I have found another 5 since then coin roll hunting various circulated boxes. All of them are identical with the field being a bit "shinier" (almost unaffected) in the middle of the coin. There is a similar effect on s...

2021 "Matte" Reverse
I have found a few of these "matte" reverse nickels in mint rolls. The field of the reverse side of the coins have a "matte" appearance and it is consistent in all of the coins I have found so far. Any thoughts as to what caused this effect?

Re: Signature Change-overs (PREFIXES to look out for)
I found this note the other day and I was wondering if it was worth hanging onto, it has two light creases on the one side of the note. It seems to fit in the range indicated below (54,735 away from the change-over). 2012 FIFTY: Mcklem-Carney GHD (below 4.90M)*** *** Some M-C GHD have been reported ...

2000 Freedom Obverse Die Deterioration and Replacement
The first coin of this set shows obverse die deterioration and the second coin shows that the obverse die was replaced. The reverse die chip/crack on the C of Canada stays consistent to prove the obverse die was only replaced. Coin 1: Photo 1 -reverse die chip/crack on the C of Canada Photos 2,3 & 4...

March 1999 "Retained Grease" Strike Through
I found this coin in the approx. middle of an original mint roll. Is it possible for the grease to remain on the coin of a struck through grease feature?
In photo 4 you can see the struck through grease character on the coin where some of the grease is gone (red arrows).
