Title: 1999 two dollar varieties
Post by: Mister T on December 08, 2018, 10:18:23 AM
Anyone taken a closer look at the two dollar varieties of 1999 - the small and large head?
I was looking at a 1999 two dollar coin I got recently and comparing it to some I already head and it looks like maybe the difference is a trick of the light or something - the rims on these coins are pretty shoddy across the board and it kind of looks like the text is the same distance from where the rim should be. Or maybe I just haven't found a real small head.

I've taken a closer look and measuring a few examples that look different - they appear to be the same.
So I don't think there are really any varieties of 1999 two dollar.
