I've heard that on strong strikes (specimen strikes?) of this dollar, the time on the Parliament Building clock can be seen under magnification. Does anyone know what time it reads? Thanks.

I don't know what time the clock tower reads, but I know the time when I go to the dentist...2:30 (tooth-hurtie). smile.gif

It should be visible on all pieces. I've got a polished VF, and can read it just fine, though it is weak.
