B over R or not? asking for opinions please.

[absence of uniformity]

First of all I'm not asking for financial advice about whether or not to purchase a coin. Secondly I'm only asking opinions on whether or not the coin in question "could" be B over R based on the image provided.

I know its a poor image, which in turn limits the ability to awnser the questions with any confidence. I'm simply looking for opinions on the question outlined above.

Comments unrelated to the question I won't address. If you are not interested in this type of question please simply scroll on by.

Note the image on the left is the coin in question. And the other two images show examples of B over R one without a straight edge in the top right corner of the bottom loop of the B and second example with a straight edge  in the top right corner of the bottom loop of the B.

Im quite sure the coin in question is not a B over R coin, however I'm interested to hear others opinions.

Thank you.

I'm aware that the difference between the example images can be/is the amount of wear, if the letter B is worn down enough you would see the straight section of the of the R shown in the top right corner of the bottom loop of the B creating the straight section.

No, it’s not an R over B; unless it’s the same coin, I’ve seen this flaw mis-described before, even major auction houses are chancers at times.

Nearly scrolled…honestly, just stick with the enquiry…I really hope you get your answer or, better still, a B over R coin 🍻

You've answered your own questions/observations perfectly.
