Does anyone know how to tell which KM# is which? They are described rather unhelpfully as low and high relief which is impossible to tell on a circulated coin. There is also a reference to the 2nd type having a larger crown but having looked at several examples I can't see any difference.

Either KM# is scarce but the KM541 has a value 4x greater than the high relief type one.

I've listed it for exchange as being the most common type but I would like to be certain.

I'm going to look into this actually as I cannot stand it when there is little to no info !
I have them both. What I can tell is that the Border of KM# 540 is slightly wider than that of KM# 541. But you really have to compare them side by side to see the difference.
I did not weigh them to find out any difference as they are in 2X2 Flips and also I don't have a weighing machine that is this precise.
