Not a full hanging 3 On a Candian 1963

Is this the beginning of a hanging 3. Thought it was just a scratch, But have14 for them with all the same scratch,

To me does not look like a hanging 3. But how can i have 18 of them with the same scratch. Those are 2 of the many.

Hard the show in an image with what i have to work with. Your thought please,

Looks like it to me.

Yes it does, certainly your second picture:

 But the hanging 3 the line should be more in the middle of the 3. None of them have a clear line going up.It just does not look right to me.

Maybe a double. With wear and slight movement of the dies I wouldn't expect it to look exactly like these examples. 

This one i marked as a hanging 3 and cut leaf. Not sure when i put aside to look at more.

Have not decided of cut leaf is PMD or filled die. Iam going to have to get a much better way to  take images. My window 7 micro is dieing.

So this would be a hanging 6 in 1956. I also have a 1962 and 64,65

 If the first one turn out to be a hanging 3 i have 18 of them on my desk. VF to XF. if need one let me know
