Malaysia 50 Sen 2005 varieties [επιλυμένο]

Just messaged the referee about this.

Thank you, I believe there are transitional types as you have identified, my Malaysian coin guide only dates up to 1991, so not sure if it is recognized in the books. Approved the request, as visually we can see it. 

Hi.. There are two types in 2007 also small and big flower.. 

What do you think?

Comments are welcome

Is it better to measure the distance from the legend to the flower? 

not a lot…

I think I don't see a difference.

On the “big flower” not so much, on the inner flower, yes. 

Maybe a small difference:

The OP will decide, for me it's just a maybe yes, maybe not, but for the small flower in the center of the other side, there is no doubt?

Yes. Maybe.  Sometimes it's hard to tell what due to wear and lighting on the picture and what's really different.  Always better to compare UNC of the different coins (if you have them).

Hi Ole! Thank you for making an excellent image.

For me, the most consistent way of distinguishing the small and large flowers is to draw a vertical line that touches the tip of the left-most leaf. For the small flower it will intersect the “N” of “NEGARA” exactly on the corner. For the large flower, it will intersect a little to the left of the corner of the “N”.

As for the reverse flower, the difference is very clear when you have the coins in front of you.

Here is the difference between Malaysia 50sen 2007..

HI Murf,

very impressive images, thanks for sharing.

A ruler is not a very accurate tool, try get hold of an electronic caliper with two decimals

If you could send me or publish your images here, without your ruler and arrows, it would be helpful to study, if it's the same variant.

Thank you

Ole

Hi Sjoelun 

Here is some pic side by side.. 

Which variety has the long “MALAYSIA” on the edge?

Thanks for the images.

I couldn't incorporate the different edges, since Murf didn't tell me!

Remove the “Arrows from small flower” comment.

Will do. Copy paste in all its glory….

Thanks for the images.

The Large flower or Centre Flower Cut-in is the one with long Malaysia on the edge

Here is the version with the 3rd side of the coins incorporated
