1952 Nickel (missing chrome example)

[TheJonasCollegeFund]

Found a 1952 canadian nickel. I need a picture of the 1952 with the chrome missing variety. Been looking but can't find a picture to compare mine. I have seen a price of $$$ in G-4.

Thanks

It is an example of the 1944, but it is the same missing chrome issue.
The chrome has an almost blue tinge to it, while the version missing the chrome will be very dull.
